ACCESS
Media Access is an e-mailing list dedicated to closed-captioning, audio description, and related topics, including:

Reports of good - and bad - captioning, e.g., you can write in to report some particularly skilful or inept captioning you saw, to report captioning outrages, to discuss the merits of a captioning company's style, and the like.
Technology issues, including access to up-and-coming technologies like CD-ROMs, virtual reality, computer games, etc.
Nuts-and-bolts questions, such as: How do I listen to Descriptive Video? Where do I buy a caption decoder? In short, anything you want to talk about on any topic related to making media accessible to people with vision or hearing impairments.

You don't, however, need to be blind, visually-impaired, low-vision, deaf, or hard-of- hearing to participate in this discussion. Media Access is an unmoderated list. No one will censor what you say, though everyone has the right of reply.

To subscribe to the Media Access list, type the command: SUBSCRIBE ACCESS firstname lastname in the BODY of an e-message - substituting, of course, your actual firstname and lastname - and send it to the following e-address: LISTSERV@MAELSTROM.STJOHNS.EDU Media Access is also available in digest form - that is, as a large (usually) single daily message, containing all of the e-messages sent to the list on that day, rather than all of the individual e-messages separately.
