[games_access] hello everyone, from Robert Florio

[Robert Florio]

Hi guys I haven't talked to you all in a while, a very long time.

Mrs. Robert Florio remember me?  I've been thinking with my mouth, a lot.,
and I just finished illustrating a children's book.

I hope to share with you all and if it out by Christmas it would be a great
gift.  It's still a great gift.

I will share the link shortly in the next week or so I hope.

I finally got my trike out after 13 years and it was stitched up on April
13.  Crazy number 13.  LOL

I started doing standup comedy, throwing in the mix everything in my life
and hopefully I can get together with you guys for a fundraiser with
Michelle so I can come join you and do some comedy it's a lot of fun.

Gaming market after graduating in 2007 from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh
online gaming degree, all of them in Maryland said, no jobs.

Hopefully this children's book takes off and I'll be doing more.

Wish me luck.  I hope you're all doing well.

Looked me up on face book.

Spam filter again -- Barrie's response!

 

Again, given Gamma 4's mission, one button with the one switch guidelines
may be the most easy and less confusing language to use. Many do not
understand what a "switch" is and we definitely don't want to make things
more difficult! :) That doesn't mean we can't use the experience to let
others know how to find out about the history and what "one switch" means to
the disabled but I think "one button" is the way to start that conversation
rather than scare away people with language.

 

Just my thoughts. :)

 

Michelle

I personally use one-switch because of the tie up with accessibility
switches, of which there are many more types than just a push-button. From
the field of educational accessibility software, one-switch / two-switch
accessibility is a standard term that has been used long-before I knew
anything about it. That's why I like to use it in reference to one-button
games.

I don't think so, I prefer one button since the word is a bit easier to
understand than switch
