Mute, Deaf or Blind?

OK so listen up. There's this riddle that i've been hearing for ages but never knew the answer. It goes like this.

There's a blind man, a mute , and a deaf person. The mute man saw the deaf person kidnaps the blind man's wife. The question is, how does the mute man tells the blind man about the incident?

Here are the answer's that I've come across over the internet:

1. The mute man uses braille to tell the blind man.
2. The mute man typed it on an audio speaker device.
3. The blind man would've heard his wife scream.
4. Use Morse Code.

There's probably no good logic answer to this riddle but what I'm getting at is that humans have developed great technologies for the disabled to communicate with others. It is something that we should be proud of.

Human communication have come a long way since sending a messenger across countries just to deliver a letter. Now there's MSN messengers, email services, SMS, and phones to make calls.

In conclusion, we should be thankful that we live in an era that the mute can communicate using sign language, the blind read using Braille and the partially deaf can use hearing aids.
