WisCon31 concom, [[disability]] [[access]] witch

Born in the Boston area in 1955, lived in [Madison] since 1973

Checkered work history includes bicycle mechanic, computer tape librarian (with ''keypunched'' database) auto service writer, civil engineering drafter. My love of computers started with an Editwriter 7500 dedicated CP/M typesetting system, splashed up on the Mac shore with an 512k, 400k disc drive almost-first-of-its-kind, still in love twenty-two years later.

Was part-owner, tech writer & newsletter editor, user tester & beta captain for [http://personalpages.tds.net/~ti51/rdcnews.htm Raised Dot Computing]. I authored five software manuals (in parallel large print, [[audio]] and [[braille]] editions). Proudly presented on the natural fit between SGML and alternate format production at SGML 1989 conference, which may have supported some of the platform independence of the net and openness to plug & play user agents.

During that time also studied American Sign Language and served as an apprentice interpreter. Exposure to blind and deaf communities was wonderful on its own, and immensely helpful when I had to retire on [[disability]] in 1990.

Strong advocate for universal access to mass transit, including five years' service on City of Madison transit board.

Have been home-schooling myself in [http://www.uic.edu/orgs/sds/generalinfo.html Disability Studies] for last 12 years. I hope WisCon 31 was my [http://jesse-the-k.livejournal.com Masters' Thesis].

As a former typesetter who has transformed hundreds of machine-readable documents into large print and braille, I loathe PDF documents with a passion.
