Lew, Thank you for all the wealth of information you are sharing so patiently. Your detailed replies are always pleasant to read. Thanks to this thread I know that Pro Tools is seeing some accessibility efforts. I always thought that only the basics were accessible with VO.
It looks like you are in a tough patch and I wish you the best of luck in all your future endeavors.
