Really? I have had an awful time with google audio captcha.  Maybe it's 
because I wear hearing aids??? I have spent ridiculous amounts of time 
before calling in a sighted family member to do the graphic version.  Oh, 
and the numbers/letters are different in characters for some reason. Perhaps 
this is to prevent using both to figure something out???
Anyway, what is your trick for getting past the captcha on google?
Thx.

I have found that Google's audio captia system works pretty well as it 
doesn't require that you type all of the characters it speaks but, rather, 
will accept a subset if they are in the correct order. I discovered this by 
accident but tried a few more times and verified I was correct in this 
guess.

I don't know how many of the characters are necessary to meet their 
threshhold for acceptance but someone can probably interpolate and find out 
if interested.
