So you allow for a lower D in the middle of a word like daddy to be confused with a full stop, the five-six Y in a word like pity to be confused with a letter sign, the dot six N in a word like station to be confused with a capital N ... anything else? It's madness!Jackie Email: cairnsplace@xxxxxxx Skype Name: Cairnsplace----- Original Message ----- From: "Iain Lackie" <ilackie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, June 22, 2008 6:39 PMSubject: [access-uk] Re: when is the new braille coming out as i have had some informationBecause a lower d stands for something else and it would be quite possible to have a full stop in the middle of a character string. Machines aren't asgood at context as humans are.

I do agreethat Emails and web addresses are too crammed with what I think are sillyindicator signs, but no more five-six Y, or dot six Y? Good grief behave!!(smile.)

And it makes some things much easierand more straight forward, like writing email addresses in grade 2 with noneed for enclosure signs and things, for instance!
