I must say good job Gerald, I believe in giving credit where credit is due.

You can whine all you want about the unfairness of being charged for a service that sighted folks take for granted, but in the end, you will still have to solve captchas on many sites in order to register or create an account. So unless you use Webvisum with Firefox, which doesn't always work, or pay for a service like ZCaptcha, you will need sighted help to solve captchas. That's just the way it is. Get over it.
