Yes, now what I need to wrestle with is how to integrate the two modalities
into one coherent language (or "communication system") so that they're
mutually supporting, and both usable. It seems crazy, but I'm not so sure it
is, to consider a single language that could be used in three distinct ways:
orally, gestural, or both simultaneously. Personally, idea of the latter
seems like an interesting and exciting idea.
