Dear Fellow Accessibility Advocates and Seniors (anyone over 19 years of age)
... Don't worry, the youngsters will catch up with us soon.

Bravo to EASI's Dick Banks for pointing out the inaccessibility of the NLM
(PDF) document.  You would think the NLM, being a part of the U.S. Government
would have heard by now of the new and legally enforceable Section 508
Accessibility Standards:
