A man attacked by macular degeneration:

[Note: "Peedy" refers to the avatar by which the program functions.]
I am very happy now, Peedy is mine forever. The donation [to the (U.S.A.) National Federation of the Blind] is a minor matter to me, because I paid [C]$795.00 for Zoom Text and it will not accomplish what I wanted so much, a program to read in Mirc, which Dan and I had been searching for a long, long time... Thanks again for the valuable work you have done. [Note: vision-impaired NEED NOT donate!]

A teacher of the blind:

"I have downloaded ronolog. and it is a great software ...i couldn't believe its extent.
"I'd like to introduce myself... [I am] from India [and] teach Jaws for Windows to blind students here... I haven't seen a better script and software for irc than ronolog."

A gifted youngster, blind from birth:

<^Simba> of course im using ronolog it's the only good text-to-speech
<author> Is there any problem using both? Both Ronolog and Jaws?
<^Simba> no they work really good together

<author> I do not want to pry Simba - but how much sight do you have?
<^Simba> i got like light perception and that's it!!
<author> You are an amazing person Simba!
<author> I am curious Simba - about how old are you?
* Simba is 18

<author> How long have you been using computers, Simba?
<^Simba> like 6 or 7 years
<author> Have you used IRC before Ronolog was issued?
<^Simba> yeah but not this efficiently !!

<Simba> i never could keep up in more than one channel before
<Simba> cause ronolog always lets u know what's being done
in what window so u dont get confused
<Simba> u gotta love this program
<Simba> all my friends got it now and they think it's cool
<Simba> cause i was having a lot of fun as soon as i figured out
that peedy would handle seven instances of mirc at once
<author> That is inventive of you Simba
<Simba> i spent the whole day on irc
<Simba> so it was really great

<author> Do you write programs yourself Simba?
<^Simba> yeah i do sometimes and im taking a course right now
<author> Do you use the Web a lot Simba?
