Good afternoon all,
I apologize for my use of that word under the I don't appreciate this feature. In all honesty, I didn't read the topic of the word that crashes jaws. For one thing, I don't use eloquence, so when I typed the word, I didn't know what Liam was referring to when he said Jessica typed the c word on one of the grafiti boards. He may have typed in such a way as not to make eloquence crash on people who use it, because jaws pronounced it different, but since I chose not to install other language, jaws doesn't read accented characters for me. Anyway, if I made some peoples' jaws crash because of eloquence when they read my post, I am deeply sorry and sincerely apologize. I think people who do this sort of thing for fun and laughs are really sick individuals. I can only think the individuals who did this on purpose are sighted teens, who don't depend totally on jaws. I can't believe any blind teens, no matter what weird sense of humor they have would like this sort of thing being done to them. I wouldn't like people doing it to me, and I feel really bad and panic stricken that I may have albeit inadvertently made peoples' jaws quit on them. I'm glad I've given up on qn's, and I'm glad I don't have to use eloquence, have a nice evening all,
wonderwoman

Actually that's not entirely true, most are jfw users, but use an external synthesizer or a different software speach engin to do their dirty work.

Just an adendum to my last message, that bug is an eloquence issue alone, that's why your jaws didn't crash on you when it encountered the c...word.

Wonderwoman but I think you put a space between the word and that doesn't crash jaws. That's okay.

Thanks Inez,
well I'm relieved I didn't crash anyones jaws. Good point renegade_rocker, guess I should've thought of that. Wonder how they would like it if they had to use eloquence, and people using other synthesizers did the same to them.
