  Hello list:


  This just happened recently. I have a friend that used to taunt me because 
since I have jaws on my computer I could just sit back and relax while jaws 
spoke everything on the screen and he needed to read everything instead. Well, 
that changed a couple of weeks ago. I told him about the demo of jaws and guess 
what. He is sighted and yet he is using jaws everyday now on his computer. He 
says, it is faster and cooler than just reading on his computer. Also, he says 
that is is easier on his eyes. Also, he uses eloquence. That is wierder still 
because 99.9999999% of all my sighted collegues hate eloquence and prefer the 
real speak voices. Now he is almost as fluent with jaws as I. He also has 
eloquence at a rate faster than mine. I am telling you this because, when 
sighted peaple see how useful is jaws, they want to try it out and when they 
do, they don't think that it is weird at all.


  Finally, don't get me started on what he thinks about the virtual ribbons. He 
says (and again, remember that he is sighted) that that feature is a messege 
from God itself.
