This idea has been around for about 40 years and while it's great that we have the technology to achieve this, it isn't a magic solution or even a very good solution. The gloves only translate manual spelling which is extremely awkward to communicate in, and there are hundreds of different signed languages that would all have to be programmed. Most importantly, the hearing world should work to accommodate deaf people, not the other way around.

Agree, sign language should be universal and taught around the globe (sorry flat Earthers ). I can imagine a drunk argument looking pretty comical though.

Arguing is usually pretty fast and passionate while drunk is slow and clumsy so put those together and it is funny to watch. When I would sneak out to go drinking as a teen I would use sign with my siblings so as not to wake my parents - very convenient.
