Karen, I hesitate to ask, since you are clearly so much worse off than I.  

I am partially sighted, and have great difficulty with your emails because the 
blocks are so large.  The largest block of text in this email is 14 lines, 
which is still problematic, but the largest block in your previous email was  
44 lines long. [ I didn't count myself, I got KWrite to do it. ;-) ]

I realise that you may not be able to do anything about it, and that you may 
not even know that you are doing it.  But if you do know that you are doing 
it, and would be able to do something about it, could you possibly?

I find your emails worth reading and am prepared to take some effort to read 
them.  And I could always copy and paste into a word processor and edit it.  
It's just that it would be nice not to have to do so.

Thanks,
Lisi
