FYI

A federal judge ruled that the Atlanta mass transit agency violated the
ADA by constructing a website that was inaccessible for people with
visual disabilities. This is one of the first cases to decide that the
ADA requires online access for people with disabilities. For more info,
see http://www.sedbtac.org/ed/whats_new/articles.cfm?id=2520#content.
