I apologize. I was completely wrong (again). I find no limitation on the
length alt text either in the HTML document or with current versions of
Window-Eyes, HPR or JAWS. So the issue is only what is appropriate - and I
still (with head hanging low) recommend that alt text be kept as short as
possible.
