What Would Tim Say?

Well, how many accessibility-related presentations have you seen online or in the real world that started with the quote from Tim "inventor of the World Wide Web" Berners-Lee:

"The power of the Web is in its universality. Access by everyone regardless of disability is an essential aspect."

Bored of it? I know I am. So, thanks to Bruce and Patrick for coming up with some alternatives. I suspect that there may have been beer involved when they came up with this idea. Who's gonna use this one in their next accessibility presentation?

"Why would blind people be using a computer anyway?"

"Why would blind people be using a computer anyway?" I think I'd prefer: "Why would blind people NOT be using a computer?" I'm sure this wasn't intended to be insultive but I'm afraid it was!
