There are other methods for addressing this issue than gathering petition
signatures. A petition carries virtually no legal wait and has little if any
standing when dealing with a private corporation. Perhaps a letter drafted
to the company by an attorney on behalf of the California Association of
Blind Students and the NFBC as a whole would work better. The only real
value that this petition will have is to make those who sign it feel better.

Deepa,
Please forward this to California chapter presidents, state student
division presidents, and anyone else you think could help in this matter.
Dear affiliate and chapter presidents:
I am writing on behalf of the California association of Blind
students as chairmen of the CABS social networking committee. We are acting
in accordance with the California Affiliate's resolution 2008-02 regarding
the accessibility of social networking sites.
Attached is a petition to the owners of Myspace.com to work with
the NFB to improve the accessibility of their web site to users of screen
reading software. Please print out the petition and the accompanying sign-up
sheet and collect signatures from chapter members and other interested
parties. Once you have collected as many signatures as you can, please mail
the petition and sign-up sheet(s) to:
Angela Fowler
628 King Avenue
Yuba City, CA 95991
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to email me at:

We sincerely appreciate your help in this matter.
Sincerely
Angela Fowler
CABS social networking committee chair
Thank you
Angela Fowler
