Hello,

Does anyone know if there's yet ways to make Flash accessible? I'm unclear
on the latest with this particular point of access.  So I'm asking for help,
thoughts, suggestions, etc.  The version I'm trying to access says it's,
"Adobe Flash Player 10.2.152.26."  It's not at all audible that I've found.
Says it's a slideshow.  What does one have to do to get the text shown on
such a visual platform, in readable text or HTML or something?  Is it
possible to transfer such a slideshow to a PDF or something, and then save
that as a text version?  It'd be nice, wouldn't it?  ;-)

I paid over $300 for this training, and they said a year-and-a-half ago that
it was supposedly accessible.  Still, to this point, it's not.  I've been
letting it slide due to other concerns, but can and want to work on this
point of access and accessible training now.  It's an organization, a
training facility, that offers tons of potential to those who are blind - if
we could access their various training programs better!  I don't want to go
public with naming them, yet.  If anyone is interested in helping, feel free
to contact me offlist and let me know, and we can talk.  

Thanks in advance for your thoughts and help with this.
