A UK user survey an accessibility/usability

Just to point to your attention this survey (*):

http://www.out-law.com/default.aspx?page=6314

There's much to say about methodology (a survey isn't a user testing), 
but it's meaningful that people need ease of use. Rarely mentioned 
tech-related issues, often organization, clarity, language and 
perceptual issues.

The only tech-related issues are pop-up (annoying) and flash annoyiance.
Quote: "Surprisingly, among the visually impaired users, 25% found ALT 
tags not important at all. "

This is only a survey, but with 208 user (not 10...). Is there some 
useful reflections to be done for our agenda from this survey?
The first thing that comes in my mind is that the results are not 
suprising at all (exception: the ALT problem, that maybe need to be 
further investigated). For our recent discussion worth mentioning that 
validity doesn't seems to be a major issues for real disabled user. This 
is comforming to my common experience.
