An interesting footnote to the civil part of this thread is my experience 
with the obituary page in the Roanoke, Virginia Roanoke Times.  The paper 
recently redesigned the obituary page so that you have a link for each 
entry instead of the full obituary appearing on the page.  The Jaws cursor 
was unstable, repeatedly landing on what I presume was a Macromedia flash 
clip.  The Web master was stumped on how to remedy the problem.  When the 
flash messages started appearing on this list, I decided to turn the 
feature off in Jaws 5.00812 to see if that would stabilize the 
cursor.  Voila!  No more problems.
