Mick and others:
No it was not meant as spam. I was showing an example of a CAPTCHA and how
one web site helps those with screen readers to enter a contest with the use
of a button that will speak the letters. My intent was not to promote the
contest.
However it is a good contest.
I just thought those using JAWS and window eyes would try out the speak it
button and report back to the list on how this method works.
