Publicity is a pest, particularly sinse the majority of vi people are 
eldily, and games like Railracer Monti would not appeal to that age group, 
and would not be advertized by organizations to their mostly eldily vi 
members (I've had similar debates rguarding accessible books).

I recently met and had a conversation with a couple of people from the 
newzeeland association for the blind, who didn't know anything about 
accessible games at all.

One interesting fact though, is that in 10 or 15 years, the people who grew 
up in the 70's will start hitting 50 pluss, begin losing their site, and 
just as they'll have different book preferences, they'll have different game 
preferences.

Admitedly it'll be a long time until the real gamer generation, who grew up 
in the 80's get old enough to start having site problems, but it will happen 
eventually, ---- heck! there are people on the retroremakes forum in their 
40's already.

thus I think there is eventually bound to be a lot more interest in audio 
games than there is already, and so a wider markit, and so more money to 
devs, and (hopefully), more games, and that's aside from efforts by smaller 
devs such as 7-128 software, and any possible progress made with main stream 
game companies in future.

Beware the Grue!
