I don't have an answer to Dave's question about not being able to see some people's text in their messages. However, I have read Susan's two messages quite well. What I do if I come upon a message with this characteristic is to click on the e-mail source button. Then, I have to pass through the HTML code. I have queried people who send me messages whereby the text does not show as normally it should. One woman, in particular, used to send messages that I always had to click the e-mail source button to view the text. Then, all of a sudden, she started sending messages that were viewable as most are. She said there was nothing she had changed. So the mystery goes on. While I have the opportunity, I want to thank you Susan for all the many, many hours you have contributed to braille access in all the many ways you do. I know that "thank you" isn't nearly the best way to commend you, so I'll just say "Thanks a bunch!".
