Thanks for the welcome, Reggie. And welcome back yourself.

Know what I wish we were allowed to change? Things that we KNOW are
going to be mispronounced. For instance, many Christian books have
Bible quotes and one version is the Living Bible, which is abbreviated
LB, which the reader reads as pounds. And right now I am scanning a
book with talk of MI 5 in it but it keeps reading it as Miles 5. Makes
me nuts when I know I COULD fix it to read properly.
Or how about when a chapter title is read but, because it has no
punctuation after it, just smoodges into the text of the book itself?
In most cases it is annoying, but in some it is pretty funny.
One book preface read at the bottom of the page "You can find the love
of God in the" and then read right into remaining running header
"preface" so the sentence read
"You can find the love of God in the preface." LOL in that case the
removal of the running header would have solved it but there are other
good ones I can't think of right now.
Is there any allowance for fixing things like this?
