Electronic hearing may not be perfect, but it's a whole lot better than no hearing at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross most of her lifetime as a hearing person, Linda Knapp was a high school\/college English teacher, senior writer at Apple Computer, columnist for The Seattle Times and McClatchy-Tribune news services, published writer of education books andnovels, and committed wife and mother.
