PSL---An ASL Student View

I am currently in an American Sign Language class. My teacher, Toby Welch, Has a blog and recently has blogged about Persons Sign Language. It appears to me that much of the deaf population are against it. To me it looks like this woman is trying to make a "Language" of her own. As a "Hearie" I can't fully estimate what effect this has or could have. If anyone wants to read the post go here.
