Re^6: Stop Form Hurling

Having just listened to it, it's as distorted as the text is. I can't understand it myself, and the doctor said I have "normal" hearing. Nope, I don't think that passes muster at all. Lots of people will still be excluded. What about a blind deaf person using a braille browser? Such people do actually exist. Maybe it's fine with you if your sites don't work for them, but I think it's morally vacant, considering that the REST of the technology all works fine with it. I'm not talking about flying an airplane, I'm talking about viewing a web page!

I think the people who run the site would be happy to assist a person experiencing difficulties with both spambot prevention schemes. Obviously, I'm not speaking for all the sites in the world, and not for LiveJournal in particular, though I happen to know something of that community. The number of people who are both deaf and blind is small, which doesn't mean they should be ignored (I don't know what made you think that was ever my opinion), but does mean they can get personal help. In the case of LJ, this step is not required for viewing a web page, but for joining the service.

Such monks exist (i forget his name, but there is a braille monk about)
