Darrel,

Yes, I've been thinking analogy way too lately. Rather than saying 'Web
Accessibility Specialist', which generally results in the glazed-over-eye
look, I'm wondering if something like 'virtual building inspector' or
'website building inspector' would be more understandable.

I mean, large companies have these impressive[=expensive] boardrooms that
serves a finite number of people per year. Yet making their site
accessible, which could potentially serve way, and probably at a fraction of
cost -- but that is such a 'leading edge' concept. How does it not make
good business sense?

I'll check out the sound bite.

Cheers,
Glenda
