Thanx for passing that along Sarah, and thank you Paul for pointing out the
utter fallacy of their statement re: "1. Does a University web site have to
be Section 508 Compliant?". Unfortunately, there are far too many
organizations that will blindly believe this, because they don't know
enough. Hopefully, at the very least someone will point it out to Usable...
Perhaps someone from their legal dept. and we can get this fixed before too
much damage is done.
