Failure to do so can make life very difficult; for instance, I have trouble differentiating between a "3", "6", "8" and "9" because of my eyesight; there are many letters, for instance "m" and "n" that cause me difficulties, too. Parsing Ben's posts is very difficult, even in the rare case that what he writes makes any sense at all. I invite Mr McCarthy to try and read a post in which the letters are moving, vanishing, shrinking and getting bigger, in no particular order. To anticipate a probable response; I do not use a text reader as my doctors have advised me to use my eyes as much as possible.
Hi Simon. I read earlier that you recommended to Ben to use Firefox's dictionary add-on to improve his posts. Might I suggest for you the 'Ctrl and +' function which increases the text size to your liking. It's very handy.
P.S. Ben, I always preview my posts before submitting. You should too as it enables you to read what you've written and see it the way everyone else will.
