Maybe it's just me, but I would find this extremely patronising...
OT: It reminds me of a discussion I had a while ago about the accessibility
of a site, and the site owner said something to the effect of
"Should we have a notice on the site saying: 'if you are visually
impaired, please use either a text browser like lynx or
a screenreader'"...
*shakes head in frustration*
(not at Jon, but at the unnamed person who uttered that cretinous
sentence above)
