I'd say as a fellow dev and teacher, the term is more accurately portrayed as being a realist.

I also agree with Steve that we should have choice, and I am also for the non-screen-reader dependant solutions, that's why I contribute and create ahk scripts.

But again, who's gonna do the work and who's gonna pay for it?

Money talks and bull shit walks.

  I think you're being fairly myopic about your numbers. Let's leave it at
