Big News

The news is talking about spelling. 

Historically, the news really portrays voiceless people as being the least mentally capable people on earth.  That way has good reason to leave the status quo undisturbed. Happily, things seem to be changing. 

A few weeks ago, a piece about spelling was shown on NBC News. It was all kinds of awesome. Then this weekend, the NY Daily News ran a piece about the communication bill of rights. Give the disabled the right to talk, says the headline. 

I think that the world is slowly changing for us. Getting us to be seen as intelligent will change everything. To suggest that we are the victims of an unscrupulous group of teachers who are manipulating us into spelling is idiocy. 

Today we are still suffering in programs that believe we are cognitively limited. But that is finally changing. That is big news indeed.
