    Closed-captioned for the vitality-impaired.

  2. Slartibartfast says:

    Dan, was there supposed to be a link in there, somewhere?

  3. Dan Collins says:

    Thanks, Slart. Hazards of posting from “work.” I’m sometimes “working.”

  4. SarahW says:

    We hear ‘ya.

  5. harrison says:

    So, radio with closed-captions on a screen?
    TV?

  6. harrison says:

    Oh, and I forgot.
    “Your tax dollars at work.”

    Hi-fi for caskets.

    A whole new market.

  8. PCachu says:

    Hey, they’re just making sure they reach their core audience.

    Radio for the deaf? We already have that, it’s called an “internet.”

    Radio for the dead? Why, would that be those classic “metabolically-impaired” Chicago Democratic voters?

    As a side note, the “hearing-impaired lobby” is an interesting if very small phenomenon – I did a very short term studying and interpreting back in college (I’ve forgotten everything, pretty much).

    Do they patch through a Ouija Board or a Crystal Ball?

    Radio for the dead?

    I believe that’s called “Air America.”

    Shoes for Industry?

    …would that be those classic “metabolically-impaired” Chicago Democratic voters?

    That’s “Decomposition-inconvenienced”, potty mouth.

  14. mishu says:

    They going to have that on car radios?

  15. PalmettoTiger says:

    Ender is on NPR now?

  16. happyfeet says:

    That’s kind of a pitifully obvious attempt to get some good victimy deaf people in their tent or even just pretend they’re in their tent so that when people want to make NPR get off the government tit they can mewl about how teh deaf people depend on their services. Pathetic.
