Hey Guys,
you said that we should remove paragraph marks but can you tell if they are 
at the end of the sentence? I use JAWS so if any JAWS users can answer this 
question I would appreciate it.
I am still working on my first proof and find out something almost everyday, 
I was ready to upload it as finish, but now I am questioning my "work" 
again.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we 
are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most 
frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, 
talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. 
Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened 
about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are 
all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory 
of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And 
as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission 
to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence 
automatically liberates others."-Mariann  Williamson

she means the number one for capital eye (which unfortunately sometimes, as 
now., looks like the letter el.

Other things to watch for at the paragraph symbol at the ends of sentences 
that are not the end of the paragraph, and hyphens at the end of sentences 
with half the word; remove the hyphen and put the 2 halves of the word 
together
