- Comment: The Phraze-It Finger-Vowel One-Handed Texting Method is novel enough for the US Patent Office to issue a patent. So the editor's opinion is baseless. The Phraze-It Finger-Vowel Texting Method is not a product for which there would be advertising. An alternative to ASL fingerspelling is noteworthy and as mentioned in the article, this texting method is important for establishing a means for persons not versed in ASL fingerspelling to learn a shorthand method. Additionally, for medical professionals, this method may be helpful with their disabled patients. Calling this a non-notable product seems to smack of a personal vendetta and contrary to the principles of Wikipedia. Persons can now text using electronic gloves or virtual gestural devices, in a way that was not possible heretofore. Rolotext (talk) 17:36, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Comment
The issue here is whether busybodies with a personal or political agenda can censor discussion in the marketplace of ideas of an innovative and useful advance in technology that will facilitate communication between people.
