Hi,
This kind of thing makes me wonder where the line is between having stuff
for people with visual impairments and stuff for everyone that people with
vision impairments can use. With stuff like screen readers and screen
magnifiers, it's easy to see how it breaks down, but with web sites, it
seems like a lot of work for very little value to me.

Thanks.

Jim

because it came up? why not leave the mod to make suggestions on what we
should and shouldn't talk about--as I remember, it was your tagline when
