I'm not sure which is worse, the assumption that people can't think in sign language, or the one that nobody, ever, can think without having language. I'm edging towards the first, though, since it's just blatant stupidity.

1. No problem.

2. I do that too sometimes. I see the words when I hear them. So if you're talking to me, aloud, I'll see the print. But when I'm just thinking, it's not visual at all, though it is, oddly, in the third person.
