I think the idea of making the web more accessible is a really good idea, I
think persuing ideas and such will be good because with the technical
advances that we are seeing regularly it would be good to keep at it rather
than giving up on the idea of making it more accessible, you never know what
someone will invent and if people see other people like yourselves trying to
making the web more accessible they might get the idea to join in and get
thinking.

So to keep the idea alive by using screen readers and other things is a good
idea and I think helps, if you can see where I'm going with this!?
