Who knew?
So I am browsing the net looking for more ways to attract find readers like yourself to this site. My goal is simple a paltry 200 to 500 visitors a day with regular visitors coming back. For example, if you like the little RSS orange thing on the bottom you can add me to your book marks.
Anyhow so I go to this site for a free web site analysis to tell me about all the egghead shit I need to know about "getting people" here and low and behold I am pissing off the British Government
What the hell is that? Some blind limey couldn't access a web page so he sued and won. That dick. ( now I am a racist against the British)
I know, I know, don't make fun of people with disabilities but sheesh, isn't that pushing it? I can totally see a blind guy using a computer. Braille keyboards, Speak N Spell voice and a HUGE magnifying lense. I have seen it done seriously and I am sympathetic to the plight of people with disabilities. But.... Couldn't you classify a website as art? And if a website is art couldn't you say so what, it's art?
I saw a huge statue in front of Davies Hall in SF today that was totally modern. (kinda gay actually). Davies Hall is disabled person friendly. Ramps and Elevators for days! I performed once there with this guy and I remember people in wheel chairs and hearing impaired stations. And hey, its in Frisco, the far left of the US. The most all kind of people friendly city in the world (socialism sucks). But the statue, in all its beauty and form is NOT compliant with little blind British kids who might want to access it.
GO FREAKING FIGURE!!!!
How Long?

Notice: I finally figured out how to put the links inside the words... After 10 or so blogs even.
My brother is disabled and I am all for making things accesible to disabled people. That said, I'm also a proponent of free speech. You should be able to express yourself however you want as long as you are not harming another person. If a blind person really wants to read a website then their friend could read it for them or they could have one of many computer programs do it for them. (I know this because my best friend's dad is blind.) For those of you who are offended by a posting like this, please focus your energy on bigger issues. Thank you.
