  1. I would have liked further info on what the forge and other places mentioned above do – I am deaf so could not listen to the video – even with computer volume on full blast it is just a jumbled noise. Transcripts or quick overview would be most helpful to others who are deaf. It is not necessarily about the volume but the speed and clarity with which people speak that make things more difficult for deaf folk.
