Joe Doakes from Como Park emails:

People are claiming the sign language interpreter at Nelson Mandela’s funeral was a fake because “. . . the man communicated nothing with his hand and arm movements.”

Maybe he accurately interpreted Barak Obama’s speech. The man basically said nothing so the interpreter said nothing.

The real complaint shouldn’t be with the meaningless interpreter, but with the content-free speakers.

Silly me.  I thought all of those sign language people were waving away nonsensically.
