[Nfb-web] Captcha Question

[Milton Ota]

In signing up for announcements notices from the AFB American 
Foundation for the Blind website I saw them implement a text based 
captcha and I have seen that Peter Donahue has mention in the past 
about where you can get a text based captcha.

I'd do a text search in the archives of the NFB Webmasters list.
