Hi Debby,

I'd like more commentary from our sighted print disabled readers to know
whether this will be helpful before I change my practises.  I'm happy to
change, as you are, but not willing to make a permanent change until or
unless it is commented upon by more than one person.

Vallerie, Doug, Judy, anyone else who is print disabled, but sighted want to
comment on this?

Mayrie

Hi Mayrie!

Should I insert elipses in the table of contents in "Rebel With a Cause"?
It wouldn't be a bother.
