That's true in the UK as well. My wife, who worked for many years with deaf 
people, is well acquainted with the community she terms the 'militant Deaf', 
and the friction between those who regard implants as the Spawn of the 
Hearing and those who look on them as the salvation of the deaf.

And over here the RNID (the Royal National Institute for Deaf People) has 
been termed Really Not Interested in the Deaf.

But I think I've just veered seriously off topic...
