Fascinating post. Very thought provoking. It led me into wondering how difficult it is to assess a threat when you can not hear what is being said. I assume you both are very good at interpreting body language and facial expressions. You also can't hear someone coming up on you. I have always had an ability, usually, to tell when someone is looking at me, or standing behind me. I really don't want to sound ignorant, but is this sense something that becomes more developed when deaf in the way many blind people have much better senses of hearing?
