Hi folks, well yes, writing letters can sometimes help and sometimes not, but unless you do it, how do you know?

Recently, I wrote a letter to nationofchange.org explaining that the font or whatevet they were using was not working with my screen reader. I am following the occupation of Walstreet. Their first reply was, thanks for mentioning it, we'll see what we can do. A few minutes ago I received this message.

Dear Atty, 


We have now developed a plain text version of all the articles. There is a new link in the toolbox on each article called "Plain Text", screen readers should not have a problem with it. Please let me know if this works for you. Thank you for your readership!

  Hi, I use a screen reader and whatever font or type you use for your articles makes it impossible for blind people to read your articles. It runs words together, it mispronounces them and it is incredably frustrating.

  Is there a text only link you can put  up or maybe consider making the site more blind friendly?

  Thanks,
  Atty
