SignWriting List October 28, 2001 Hello Ann and Nancy - Thank you for your messages (see below).. Regarding the "hip saying" or slang, that Ann asked for...I personally don't know ASL that well, but maybe someone on the SW List can help you?... The saying is: "Hello, Dude!"....or something like that...something "cool" in ASL that teenagers would use.... Val ;-) -------------------------------------- >From: >Date: Sun, 28 Oct 2001 10:29:45 EST >Subject: Re: request >To: SignWriting List > >Hi Everyone, > >I already emailed Ann about the story.
