[games_access] Gamasutra: bridging academics and mainstream gaming

Indeed, a well thought out article. I agree with it's points. I think
I've even followed them to a degree in my own efforts to show
developers the need for closed captioning in games and yet my msg is
still falling on deaf ears.

HA HA HAH! I made a funny.

Quote from article:
"One working model of your idea is worth a thousand eloquent, logical
research articles."

So, what other options do I have when my working model, not only
works, but is successful and still doesn't convince others of its
usefulness?

Sometimes I feel like I'm speaking another language when I talk about
CC in games. I've posted a couple "help wanted" ads recently and
they'll get a lot of views on the msg forums, and repeatedly, not one
person will respond.
