You do an excellent job. It is a challenging one to be sure. Bye for now,

Carolyn, Thanks for the confirmation. I understand that this occurs, however I often really don't know exactly when it occurs and, when it does occur, whether the issue is that it can't be reached or that a screen reader user has no way of knowing it's present or if something can't be activated when reached. I never knew that getting to the Chrome menu button, AKA hamburger stack button, was a hellish proposition until that was identified to me. Last night I figured out how to get there using NVDA because if someone's going to use Chrome they have to have access to that button and I knew that there simply had to be a way to get there. To the cohort, if I toss something out there that you didn't know was present, but that you also can't reach even if you know its present, or can't activate something even if you can reach it that's something I've got to know if I'm to have any hope of trying to move forward in seeking a solution, if one exists. I never mean to offer information that no one can use, but I also can't do the proverbial "mind reading" to know how or why something may not be usable. Tell me that it's not and, if possible, how it's not, and I'll keep on charging forward to find a way to make it accessible. Being sighted, however, I'll try to make accessible to you the same things that I see on screen and that the various programs present visually to me or anyone else who's likely to get involved who can see. That is my primary frame of reference and the one I'll use as the entry point in virtually all circumstances. I can't help but do that.
