Subject: [WebAIM] Request for a screenreader test

A while back, someone posted a link to an article called "The Sound of
the Accessible Title Text Separator". That got me thinking how annoying
it must be to have to listen to "right double angle bracket" and "left
double angle bracket" over and over again.

So I've created a test page that uses CSS to write the characters in. I
know it won't work on Internet Explorer, but I'm wondering if someone
who uses Firefox in conjunction with a screen reader can test this page
out and see if the screenreader still announces the characters:
