<p class="x_MsoNormal">Good morning, this website is amazingly accessible. I have been using a Mac, and I was able to turn on screen reader mode with Control Shift V, to interact with the website. It seemed to work better with their built-in screen reader.
Now I just have to learn how to do crossword puzzles because I have never seen one in my life.</p>
