Derek. If there is a possible solution then it should be implemented. If they have chosen not to implement a reasonable solution then they're at fault.
Putting a guide rail up a mountain is something that no one would want nor is it reasonable. Not sure it was worth pointing out to be honest.
A good debate that I would have expected from you would be that neither graphical nor audio captchas are accessible for deafblind people. That would be a very useful discussion point.

Martin said "Unfortunately colin, there is no worldwide law against disability discrimination. If there were, then we'd all have alternatives to the dreaded graphical verifyer." And where are the Braille train tickets or do they have talking tickets <smiles> How come no hand rails up mountains to help the disabled? <smiles> How come no Braille caller displays and on. Oh and if anyone produced information on tape, but not in Braille, are they not discriminating against those that cannot hear the tapes?
