    3. Thanks Kim! I am seventy and I also find the larger print easier to read. After I realized I had sent the large print type and before I had time to correct it ... a gentleman sent me a 'reprimand'. He said... Not only was it 'bad manners' but very hard to read with letters in caps. I replied to him with an apology and then thought I should apologize to the 'list'. Kind of you to respond back to me. It made me feel better! He has also written me back and said he was having a painful day and on medication for 'gout' and he didn't mean to be so harsh. I assured him it is ok!!! You can meet the nicest folks on the Internet!! Best Wishes~ Beth

    3. Hi Ladies, Just wanted to jump in here and give a tip (from another 70 year old) who isn't seeing as well as a few years ago.... To help you read your email and anything else, if you will go to your tool bar then click on it and in the drop down menu go to the "text zoom" , you can set the text for as high as 300X the size you are looking at now. The default setting is 100% and I usually set it at 125%. Of course, it doesn't make any difference when you're typing the text. I use Netscape as my browser so, I don't know exactly how it is done in IE, but I'm sure it is similar. Hope this helps, Sue Beth Balckmann wrote: >Thanks Kim!
