Thanks Ben,

I agree completely! ... I was just verifying that I had the magic syntax right for triggering the screen readers to ignore them.

Always, always, ALWAYS assign a null string to the alt attr's for these
graphics.  If they have no value in a no-graphics environment, they should
be handled if at all possible like they don't exist.

> Is [alt=""] the best answer?

Yes.
