I believe you are referring to a complaint filed with the Federal Transit Administration (http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ig/1998OctDec/0349.html) against another SF Bay Area transit agency. The Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) website was not involved in this complaint. Kynn Bartlett wrote: > > Interesting.
