Hi John,

Sorry about getting back after so long. I am
under interferon/robovirin therapy for Hepatitis C
and I have 9 more weeks to go (39 down). It
worked, so when I'm done I will be well. I have
let a few accessibility tasks slip --like renewing
membership in Ahead. I've also been absent from
W3C WAI-EOWG for a few months too. Yes, after mid
February, I'll start participating again.

Much of accessibility theory focuses on difficult
elements of documents like forms, positioning,
frames and other higher level things. Actually,
lots of people with print disabilities use the web
to read. The reason I know W3C standards so well
is because I read them to learn about the web. I
can see them unlike other publications.

Nice to meet you, and I'll try to attend AHEAD
this year. I should be able to travel in the summer.

Wayne
