but I can't see how it
would be helpful for someone disabled in any way as Mark suggested.

Diane,

The power of text equivalents lies in their capacity to be rendered in ways that are accessible to people from various disability groups using a variety of technologies. Alt-text tags are THE MOST IMPORTANT devices used to make websites accessible.

"Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 W3C Recommendation" is located at:

http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-WEBCONTENT/

All webpage designers should become familiar with the guidelines and attempt to implement them, it's nice to be inclusive.
