Difference (from prior major revision) (no other diffs)

Added: 6a7,12
Deaf people don't have more trouble dialling than hearing people, so I'm not sure this is a good point. How about:

Combined with a text telephone (in the USA generally called a TTY) which converts typed characters into tones which may be
sent over the telephone line, the deaf person is able to communicate immediately at a distance. Together with "relay"
services (where an operator reads what the deaf person types and types what a hearing person says) the deaf person is then given access to eveyone's telephone, not just those of people who posess text telephones.
