I forgot to mention did you know that the radio interview in my town won a
Associated Press award in the same television interview on the same story
was nominated for an Emmy last year.  Pretty cool.  A second story might be
nominated also.

Hi everyone,

I've received a request to forward this to the list:

TV Producers from KQED, the PBS station in San Francisco, are looking for
Bay Area gamers (designers, developers and plain enthusiasts) with
disabilities for a segment they are doing on video game accessibility. The
segment will air on their new, weekly-airing science/environment/technology
series, "Quest". The Quest production crew will be filming at the Game
Developers Conference in San Francisco from March 5th thru March 9th, so a
response at your earliest convenience would be greatly appreciated. Please
contact KQED Associate Producer Sheraz Sadiq at 415-553-2856 or
ssadiq(at)kqed.org to find out more about the project and share your story.

The producers have been working with me on getting access to our GDC
sessions and talking with members who are going to be at GDC but the
producers are also interested in talking with gamers with disabilities in
the San Francisco, California area who are not going to GDC.
