Build Accessibility in, gosh dang it!

To RantWoman's great surprise, RantWoman's life is tragically deficient in vexations, opportunities to be distressed, temptations to fly off the handle, and all manner of other tests of her equilibrium. RantWoman had not previously recognized this yawning deficit, perhaps because her calendar for such is already overbooked well into the next millenium. But what does RantWoman know?

Today's vexation du jour:

RantWoman received tidings of this item in her email:

http://www.diversityinc.com/article/8379/The-DiversityInc-Top-5-Hospital-Systems/



RantWoman would like to read the article. RantWoman THINKS she would like to pass the article along. HOWEVER, everything RantWoman can think of to do with Mr. JAWS, not necessarily everything Mr. JAWS can do but everything rantWoman can think of to do, yields a bunch of useless junk. RantWoman can find no headings. RantWoman can find no links that would clearly identify the article. RantWoman has yet to actually READ the article because she has lost patience with wading through a lot of meaningless extraneous gunk.

One thing that RantWoman did find, one thing that makes RantWoman howl and grumble and, in good moments, howl with laughter is a link to download something that is supposed to help about accessibility. FOLKS, if you make your site accessible in the first place, you do not need idiotic downable add-ins. RantWoman frequently computes on computers not her own and categorically does NOT want to have to download the add-in on multiple machines. RantWoman thinkgs anyone needing marketing information can darn well slurp it up some other way.

RantWoman finds it especially, cough, inspiring, evocative of mirth, ironic, and generally outrageous that a site devoted to workplace diversity has such a lame approach to accessibility.

RantWoman will now go TAKE A CHILL PILL and resume attention to all the other matters causing RantWoman to reflect on the apparent deficit of vexations in her life.
