I would just like to say, those little pictures with letters and numbers and such that you use to prove you're not a robot? (yeah, with the short name that I just can't remember at the moment) They SUCK for recovering dyslexics. Every time I do one, I get something wrong, and have to try again. I'M NOT A ROBOT! I just have trouble minding my p's and q's.

I believe they're called 'captchas' for some reason. I hate them too; they are a pain and most of them violate accessability guidelines.

Even if they didn't, or didn't completely (the ones that have an audio option), they still would screw with me--I'm even worse at listening to letters/numbers and writing them down correctly.

Also, there are people who use computers who are both deaf and blind, so ...

I am waiting for the next generation of Captcha to do things like ask what number is in this picture:

I can barely use them and I'm not dyslexic. I got booted 3 times off something today for that reason and then just gave up. It annoys me.
