download Lynx, view that site, read it aloud...

you could also get a browser for the disabled, but Lynx is a good 
one to have for a myriad of reasons...

i'd much rather see a page of:

"Welcome to Foobar"

than:

[IMAGE][IMAGE][IMAGE][IMAGE]"Welcome to 
Foobar"[IMAGE][IMAGE][IMAGE][IMAGE][IMAGE][IMAGE][IMAGE
][IMAGE][IMAGE][IMAGE][IMAGE][IMAGE]

and if that can be achieved by using (valid and correct) empty alt 
attributes in all my image tags, then you can be darn sure i'm 
going to include them...
