One goal of the Web is to transcend technical and social systems. It's time to transcend a bit. Access to all is where true potential lies.

New Mols guidelines: Will not use the term "Accessibility" at ALL unless it's within a work context. Will not shorthand. Will use "Access"

@webinista I can understand that, Tiffany. Thanks! @dstorey

@graemecoleman Oh yes, yes. That song made it over the pond. My mother sang it to me regularly starting around 2 years of age.
Replying to @dstorey
@dstorey @webinista I'd be interested in knowing more. In this case, the signs are part of a pre-existing language, ASL. It's not random.
I'm really contrary today. I must be practicing for three days with family :P

@jddj I do agree, really. Building bridges via communication is something I actually fairly decent at, just fell into the habit. #thxU

The scary part is we're supposed to dance, and I'm the one with the crap ankles and bad hip. My 80 year old mother can still kick my ass.
So today's adventure is to fly on up to Vegas, drive out to Lake Mead, and meet my folks, brothers, and significant others for Mom's 80th!

@DiceNews Hey there - d'ya know I'm carrying around a Dice laptop bag? I got it as schwag somewhere, and I'm packing it right now! Funny.
OMG wait - I just realized - I'm the very FIRST PERSON to ever speak in acronyms about her own field of interest. I better behave. (right)

I'm not sure shorthand hash constructs in the context of Twitter and social networking is a bad thing. Communication changes, we change too.
Replying to @saqibs
@saqibs You bring up an excellent point in terms of labels keeping us in a box, and I agree with that and would like to see that change.
Typical Mols Moment: Coffee and ice water on the counter. I reach for the milk. Where d'ya think I poured it?

Maybe #a11y is "insider" language? I know I picked up these shorthands at the #w3c - and it's not me being a jerk. We use the tools we have.

Replying to @jddj
Please explain why the #a11y hash is so controversial. It's simply following convention, like #i18n and #l10n - what am I missing? / @jddj

@ppatel @sarahebourne We've been yelling and we're still the ones yelling with little or no change achieved? Einstein Insanity Principle.
Replying to @dboudreau
@dboudreau LOL! That definitely made me feel better. Double glassed up doggie. Perfect. See no evil, just the beauty.
