WOW

Is it me or is nobody reading my posts. Jeff, a blind user COULDN'T use our product. It's not made
for blind users. If it were, I wouldn't be "reengineering" a perfectly good HTML standard as you
so put it. Is that right or wrong? Who cares.. it wasn't my decision. I'm not being paid to code
for blind users, or I would.

Thats it for me today folks,

Tom
