What do you mean start a fresh User POI file? Why can't she use the one
she already has? How do you create a second user POI?

It is also important to note that the primary part of the POI name is
separated from the details by the first comma. For example: Jones Hall.
northwest doors, science department

Note the comma before science department and the period after Jones
Hall. The period pauses the speech and the first comma separates the POI
announcement from the details you can get with chord P.

Be consistent in your naming scheme. 

It is also helpful if you start a fresh User.poi file when you record
all the points.
