The good thing about this section is that if you've gotten through the last two, this should be a breeze, because everything goes hand in hand. There's a reason why it's one label, and not six.

Cynthia Says™... hello?

Cynthia says makes sure your site conforms to Section 508 standards and/or Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). Chances are if you've done what Mark Pilgrim suggested and you've fixed all your errors in your code, Cynthia will say "All's well". Check your site here

Watchfire WebXACT

Looks like Bobby disappeared (though I hate to remind you all that some people still refer to him as Bobby. See why there's a need for one label? *hint hint*). The good thing about WebXACT is that is checks your pages for quality, accessibility and privacy issues, and it gives you tips and pointers as to where it is you might be going wrong. Fire away here

Will it degrade gracefully?

Curious as to how your website looks when it's stripped down? Check out the Web Page Backward Compatibility Viewer here which allows you to select elements of your website to remove and then view your page without the added stuff

Lynx Viewer

What will your page look like if it's viewed with Lynx, a text-mode only web browser? Lot's of people use text-only browsers, to save bandwidth, to be able to see easier, for handicap reasons, and for a variety of others. Take a look here.
