[nabs-l] Ah HA! I found the cooperate!

[Chun Chao]

I could not find their contact because I could not navigate their website at
all.
It was as if I was using the arrow keys with Microsoft Narrator on Internet
Explorer.
Even tabbing around the website and using the JAWS and NVDA hot keys proved
futile.
That was why I reported it to the National Center where they would have the
resource to notify Lowes regarding the issue.

Did you report the issue to Loes?
