Sometimes people are pretty juvenile when they want to prove a point.

I think proving it happens is fair, but it could have been stated in the 
subject line
that was the intent.

As you said, some people are not experienced Jaws users and probably didn't 
know how
to bail themselves out.

It had to have been Jim's message, since hewas the one to put the actual
word in there. I only eluded to it because I didn't want to crash anyone's
JAWS. it's easy enough to restart it but there are plenty of people out
there who just don't know, hence the reason I posted.
If FS actually checks their error reports, they'll see it and maybe, just
maybe, he says hopefully they'll release a bug fix, or contact eloquent
technologies about it if it's a bug with them. I believe the version of
Eloquence in there is tied to JAWS.
