[stylist] Please read my new article & give feedback

[Brenda]

Hi Donna

I did read your article.  It is very sad but true.  I can't even use my 
bread machine or oven without sighted assistance.  That is small 
potatoes compared to the issues you present.  I am glad you considered 
all nonprint readers not just the totally blind.  I was very 
disappointed that you only mentioned Jaws.  Window eyes is a great 
screen reader with great tech support who will work with people to make 
things work for individual programs.  There is a lot more I can say 
about Window eyes.  Seems like a lot of State agencies have settled on 
Jaws without considering other options.  this does not mean that 
government agencies should not have to fix accessibility out of the box, 
but I was disappointed that you did not include Window Eyes.

I did enjoy your article, I would like to see your points more widely 
disseminated.  I would like to see the national news or 60 minutes etc 
present these issues.
