[JAWSLite] Re: reading voices strange in say all

if the prior suggestions don't cure the problem, please get back to us, 
there are a few "not on the surface" items hidden in the jaws menu's that 
can affect such unusual behavior, but I would have to go digging for there 
names and exactly where there at.

regards,
inthane
