Yes, knowing my limitations plus those of Jaws, I've learned to cut my losses
and run. The other day, I wailed to the Jaws list, "I'd sell my soul for a key
combination that would get Jaws to start again each time it disappears. Now I
really had set up the hot keys for Jaws 18 after I got it. I remember doing so.
But neither my hot keys, nor anyone's suggestions about this special Jaws 18
problem had been working for me. Among the responses I got was a set of
directions to set up the hot key. I thought, "well, maybe I'll look to just
check that it's still there". So I followed the directions and discovered that
no, it wasn't there. So I set it up with these new directions and we'll see if,
next time Jaws dies and doesn't return on its own, my hot keys will work.

Worse than links that go nowhere are the links that take my screen reader to a
place of confusion. Poor old Jaws! Around and around we go, and where we end
up only the Great Unknown knows. I follow logic.
Nope. I try outguessing the keen mind that designed the site. Nope.
Finally Jaws, after circling for the twentieth time, runs into something that
says, "Double Click". Now I'm not the swiftest Dodo in the flock, but I have
never figured out how to get Jaws to Double Click. I know that I'm missing
some good stuff, but anymore I just delete the post, rather than wind up gnarly
and bitchy and sending out grumbles...like this one.
Other than that, it's a great day here on the Great Olympic Peninsula.
So dry that I've not seen a single Giant Olympic Slug for weeks.
