Why don't we not name it a so-called Rant thread? That lendse an 
heir of Unwelcome  Feeling to it.  And if we want to rant thread, 
why not go on the zone itself?

 I actually meant for this to be like the particular rant board 
on the ZoneBBS.
 I just wanted this thread to be about us talking about the 
difficulties that we face as students.
 Inaccessible ATM's, Captchas, etc fit into the catigory of this 
rant thread.
 As long as it's blindness related, and student related, I 
welcome this on my thread.
 Blessings, Joshua

 I like the Captcha on Afb it just asks you to enter a word.  For 
example, it will say, "enter the word water in the box below.

 Although the fields aren't labeled, the math problem for his 
captcha is accessible!
 I like that better!

 H's my biofst rant, I hate when website have to have Captchas
 that's seems to be one of the biggest problems for the blind on
 the internet.  Why can't they just ask you to enter a word in 
the
 text field? Sarah and Wizard

 Joshua and Sarah, you must consider that this is a world of the
 cited, and that not everything is blind Friendly.  I do agree
 with you, however, if less people demanded, there will be no
 action.  You need to be proactive and get a group of people
 together that want the same thing, then you might get more
 accomplished than if you just went on your own.

 Subject: [nabs-l] My official rant thread!

 Today, I'm going to start a discussion about something that's
 rather unfortunate, in my little town!
 A month ago, they just installed an ATM.
 The problem is, that the ATM has no speech, it's a touch screen,
 and there's no Braille!
 How dare they?
 Don't they know that it's against the ADA to do such a thing?
 Every time I try to contact the person in charge, noone answers
 the phone.
 I don't use it yet, but when I get out on my own, I may need to!
 Does anyone else have that problem on here?
 ATMs are important, especially since we have a community college
 in town.
 Who's to say, that someday there'll be another blind student at
 that college, that might need to use that ATM?
 Thanks, Joshua
