Index Number: 13603 I'd like to find out about bulletin boards focussing on concerns of deaf and/or speech-impaired individuals. Also, real-time TDD or computer teleconferences on the same topic (or transcripts of those teleconferences). I'll post whatever I get back on the newsgroup, of course. Leonard R.

My own BBS has been in operation for about 13 years now and has been
TDD-compatible for all that time. Phone numbers follow in the .sig
below.
On the BBS you will find, in the INFO area, two text files (B1 and B2)
that are, respectively, a list of BBSes that deal with disabilities,
and a list of BBSes (bedides my own) that accept TDD calls.
There are deafness-related echoes on Fidonet and we've recently heard
in this newsgroup about DEFTEK, a deafness-oriented network operating
out of Massachusetts.
Does anybody know if DEAFNET is still alive on Sprint?
