Charles, Thanks for your review and discussion of the gif I submitted to the group for comment. I know that I was certainly distracted (not to mention, annoyed) by the radar-like movement of the gif. If I was distracted, I can't imagine what some others might be experiencing. Thanks for pursuing this further with the WCAG group.
