DYK American Sign Language?

I don't but my sister does. Or at least she's learning it this semester at university. She sent me a video of her mini-autobiography in ASL and I'm not surprised she got 96% for it. It's bloody amazing. It took me a few reruns to make the connection between the text and her actions, but after a while I got the hang of it. It's really fascinating. I'll ask her permission to YouTube it for all of you to enjoy. You can tell she's enjoyed the course, both through her crisp confident actions and her body language. All she needs now is another semester's worth of classes after Christmas, and then she can go to India next summer and impart her teachings to our impoverished mute and/or deaf relatives.
