Hi Randy,

I typically use html-based slides for my presentations. They don't look
quite as spiffy, but they do the job just fine--and they can be accessed
with screen readers.

In that case, what do folks see as the best way to present? No slides at all
is fine by me. I've done things that way with no problem. Is there any
package that is the answer. Thanks for input. Need to write a report on this
soon for work. I saw the presentation and was dubious. Wanted some opinion.
