Dangerous Decibels in Theaters
Monday November 17, 2008
HHissues has posted an interesting article in the Hearing Research topic folder on the forum, "Dangerous Decibels? Are Movies Too Loud?" This is an article about how the loudness of movies in theaters is putting people at risk for losing hearing. Perhaps this could be used to bolster the argument for captions in theaters.

Good for hearing movie theatre goers and will press the theatre managements to display the open captions for everybody to enjoy the film!
Noisebreakers are our real friends of the deaf community to push the hearing community to support the concept of open captions if hearing moviegoers miss out on any dialogues.
Open captions will be the real livesavers for hearing people.
I HATE REAR CAPTIONING WINDOWS (RWC)SO MUCH!
