hello,

illness kept me at home and frequently listening to cnn news, last week.
one news item was the ibm web reader and how it allows one to hear web
pages spoken.   visiting the nfb, the reporter also spoke to students,
maybe jobs students, who were using jaws to do general access.   regarding
the ibm reader, the pivitol moment came when curtis chong, introduced as a
computer instructor, praised the ibm reader for it's utility in providing
greater access to web pages.
