Another case in point. The navy which is covered by Section 508 uses
flash to make all of its mandatory training. Same problem you experience
with facebook all screen reader users that use jfw are confronted with for
this reason. The alternate form of the training uses powerpoint and
sometimes even that training is done so badly screen readers can't read it
either. So we have to drop back to Plan C which involves specialists in
particular areas administering the training personally. On Sun, 5 Dec

Case in point, if anyone has Facebook and plays Legacy of a Thousand Suns, the
story is text based, but they use flash to add music and sound effects and also
graphics. This is why I find it annoying because the story is actually quite
good, I just can't seem to play it on either Mac or windows. Neither screen
reader sees the flash.

Your point is valid, but if you have seen what flash can do visually, you would
have a different opinion on the matter.
We are left out of the flash advances because it is actually completely
visually oriented. This makes giving a more audio textual functionality to it
less enticing for the makers, who are after all, not as capable or have the
ressources to dedicate a full team on the subject.
As for the spam thing, i believe maccessibility is an honorable site with real
intentions when proposing a petition for such matters as accessibility, as it's
their spinach and butter. So no fear of being spammed, google's backing me up
on this :)
