>>Thanks for speaking with me just now. Pursuant to our conversation, I am
>>working on a new science series that airs weekly on the PBS affiliate in San
>>Francisco, KQED. (you can see all of our "Quest" segments that are streaming
>>in HD on our web site - www.kqed.org/quest).

>>
>>One of the stories that we are working on at the moment is on video game
>>accessibility, for which we filmed at the Game Developers Conference last

>>I am desperately trying to find a paraplegic, quadriplegic or someone else
>>with a severe physical impairment that is a gaming enthusiast and who
>>resides in the Bay Area. Perhaps such an individual has purchased one of
>>your optical devices designed with disabled gamers in mind?

>>As I'm on a bit of a deadline, any leads you can offer at your earliest
>>convenience would be much appreciated.
