Tools List Disclaimer

Hi Eric & all,

Please find below my suggestions for addressing the disclaimer information as discussed in today's EOWG teleconference.
(Also some not-vital updates to the intro to change "Web sites" to "websites", to add "List" to the h1, and to update the footer.)

Web Accessibility Evaluation Tools List
Web accessibility evaluation tools are software programs or online services that help determine if a website meets accessibility guidelines. While web accessibility evaluation tools can significantly reduce the time and effort to evaluate websites, no tool can automatically determine the accessibility of websites.
[[maybe align right? as a button, it looks a bit awkward at the end of the paragraph and I think it stands out way too much]] _Submit an evaluation tool._
