Several people have used a screen reader to place the order. No problem I
understand deadlines! Now if you do place the order on line at
www.playtoachieve.com please let me know you have placed the order. We have
had some problems where I don't get credit for the order so I need to let
them know when orders go in on my site.
Thanks so much.

Do not hate me. I am desperately trying to meet a deadline for an
application for a white house fellowship. So I might place the order
without imposing on your time, is the site accessible for screen readers? I
should have asked that initially.
