James -
What a comical message! I laughed and laughed when I read it - it is just
the way it feels when you get those tape recordings...
I am curious....how does it feel when a Deaf person has to get technical
support? If hearing people are put on hold, and made to listen to these
awful tape recordings, what happens when you are Deaf? I am assuming you
must feel terrible frustration! Does the Relay service wait while you are
put on hold?
I have often thought about this...I wonder if more and more Deaf people use
the web for tech support?
