    2. dear jim thank you for your support, i hired a computer tech, because i don't know the first thing about the computer, i just use it for research, and don't know the techical stuff. i can't believe that so many people don't have anything better to do then to hurt people. there is so much hate and terror in the world that these folks have to pick on me i received over 25 shot reports, i spelled it right they didn;t spell it shout so i guess i killed someone in the process of trying to do research. where is their compassion for the handicapped. it's a sad situtation. again thank you for your support. joyce

    3. Dear Joyce: Since no one seemed able to help you increase the size of your print and how to get it please write me and tell me what mail program you are using. I can also tell you how to increase the font in size so that you are much more able to see the printed word. As to you using all caps it does seem a stupid rule to have that using all caps is considered shouting. Well that is just one of the netiquettes of the internet. You can make your fonts larger so that you can read with more ease. I don't use the small size of ten I use the size sixteen for writing and receiving email messages. I only wear glasses but it is a strain to read the small print. Another thing by increasing the font it also darkens the letters so that they are easier to read and see.
