This is the most appropriate project “design for all”.
Misspelled “priority” on the cover. Hope they haven’t printed yet.
Also, “safety.” Might want to look into having someone other than a drunk monkey proofread your work.
I wouldn’t criticize them too hard, they likely don’t speak English as their first language – they are all from china after all. Besides having someone whose native language is English do the proofreading, I’d say its totally awesome!
