"Video distributed on the World Wide Web
can and should be captioned."

- National Association of the Deaf

"It may sometimes seem that no one appreciates
the work you're doing. When you feel that way,
then raise your efforts to an even higher level,
for at some point someone will definitely take notice.
Be sincere in your efforts and in your desire
to make a valuable, meaningful positive difference.
And know that the rewards will always come."

- Ralph Marston
