Cynthia commented, "It appears the the US has reached a significant
crossroad where our polocies, technology and purchasing choices will
determine whether or not every person will
participate in the digital economy. The explosive growth of electronic
commerce continues
to erect new barriers to participation for people with disabilities as well
as for
anyone without the latest, state of the art, technology."
