>BAD is useful for presentations, for learning
>about specific web accessibility barriers and
>their implications, and as an example of
>conformance evaluation reports. BAD shows an
>inaccessible website and a retrofitted version
>of the same website with the accessibility
>barriers fixed. BAD has in-line notes
>("annotations") for you to get more information,
>and reports that list the accessibility problems for each page.

>*We welcome your help telling other presenters,
