Somehow you are absorbing the visual, or you wouldn't understand signers. That must be quite hard .... This does bring up another point.... some people are color blind, and cannot see colors as they really are, so then color coding would be lost on them. So let's see...I have had four comments from people...three really loved the color coding, and one feels it probably isn't necessary or is neutral about it.....anybody else see the color coding on the web?
