I politely disagree.  The word (or the letter combination, actually) causes 
a jaws crash.  That this has to do with the Eloquence synch doesn't distance 
it as you claim.  Eloquence is the built-in default synth for Jaws, and the 
majority of us use it.  Also, the solution for avoiding a crash, unless one 
really wants to change synthesizers, which I certainly have no interest in 
doing, is to make an adjustment in Jaws.  I think that should describe the 
relationship clearly enough.

I would ask myself, why am I so distressed about this that I want to scold 
everyone for discussing this topic?  This list is unique for its sporadic 
eruptions of anger and then legalistic discussion about what may be 
considered jaws-related and what shouldn't be.  I suggest that if things 
keep taking such an uncivil term, it might be worth rethinking this kind of 
acting out behavior.  We all have our disappointments and challenges to cope 
with in this life of ours, but that's no reason to go off on people in a 
control freak rage over things like this.  I'm sorry if this seems a 
personal attack, Chris, because I mean you no harm.  but this happens more 
on this list than anywhere else I'm familiar with.  By which I do not mean 
that on other lists I'm subscribed to, no one cares about staying on topic 
and so forth.  No.  Everyone cares.  But it gets sort of hair-trigger and 
really nasty here in this regard, and it might be worth thinking about.


Peace to all.

why on earth are we still talking about this stupid damn thing?
It's not even a JAWS problem really, it's an eloquence problem and it's up
to them to fix. I would say, if you run into the problem, just create a
dictionary entry to fix it and you'll be fine. or find better places to
hang out on the net where people don't find it funny to crash other
people's JAWS.
