For those of you that have been around the forums for a while we have seen some truly remarkable guys overcome obstacles that life has put in their way and I would just like to add another one of those guys who is making sure his love of music will not be overcome by any obstacle.
This is a true story and this is the extract of the emails between Raoul at Firetext Canada and a client, it's a bit long but you got to read the full text to find out what is going on....
"I received an email off a potential customer who was asking us all the standard questions about our FireText text message to screen software. Features, pricing and how to get it all setup within his venue.
Everything changed when I picked up the phone and decided to call his number listed in the signature in the bottom of his email. I spoke with enthusiasm and introduced myself as a FireText sales agent. I never got a reply, but could hear some rustling around and background noise. I narrowed down who I was again, speaking a bit louder "Hello… I'm FireText the text messaging software company that allows your customers to send text messages to your TV screens"… still nothing. Then I heard a click. The customer had hung up on me.
Moments later I received an email saying, "Thanks for the call Raoul, I'm really glad you reached out to me, but I can't speak. So we'll have to keep our conversation over email".
My heart just sank to my heals, and I felt a tingle shoot up the back of my neck. I quickly sat up, and wrote back to him.
"Hey Ryan!
Thanks for the email back. I thought I had the wrong number when I called you.
Ryan… may I ask what you are going to be using our software for? maybe I can provide you a bit more information so it's an easier integration with your hardware setup."
Minutes went by, and I kept refreshing my inbox to see if he had replied. Nothing. So I got up, went to the cooler and refilled my cup with water.
When I came back to my desk, I saw his email… nearly spilled my cup of water while putting it down, he wrote.
"Raoul, thanks again for your quick reply… well, I as you know already I can't speak and I'm looking for a way to communicate with my audience. I was hoping I can use your Text to Screen and Text Song Request features so my audience can send me play requests, and I'd be able to reply back to them via your software.
This is my biggest hurdle, because right now I have to write down a reply on paper, and it takes too long.
I know using FireText will speed things up, and I'm hoping it will land me some bigger gigs."
Wow Ryan,, just another instance if you have that insatiable desire to be a DJ, nothing, just nothing is gonna stop you! Hats off to you mate...

Hats off to Ryan!!!!!!and the ppl from fire text not only does he use it for his gigs makes you wonder how many other people might use it for their function of communication for everyday living. Im Not educated on the product since I'm a noob but sounds like a great thing.
Big pops to tayla for the help he has given me!!! And the few others that I don't remember their names off the top of my head.
P.s tayla I sent a message to you on skype just wondering if you got it and able to help with the questions?
