It said that 'some usable vision' would be necessary because not all tools
were accessible. what this means is really unclear! If you have enough
usable vision to use a mouse but not to read with any facility (like
myself) - that's one thing. But if the inaccessible pieces demand good vision,
then why open the position then why the need for fluency in JAWS etc. at all?

sorry guys, I messed this message up, the message did mention that the
person would have to be able to access some things visually, I do not
remember the actual verbiage, but is correct.
