Mmmm...interesting item, and an unfortunate response from some disability
advocates, it would seem.
But I don't seem to be able to test a site using SiteMorse's "QuickTest"
testing tool, and so it's hard to comment at this point. I think I recall
seeing this SiteMorse tester before and balking at the requirement to
register/provide email address for what presents itself as a free, quick
online test. Does anyone have experience actually using their tools?
Phil.

Also, it might be useful to discuss this item alongside this news item from
last March 2004 that claims that "Nearly 60% of leading disability websites
fail basic accessibility checks":
Disability organisations fail to meet challenge on accessibility:
