I wrote in some time ago telling of how Jaws read news items on the world
science site in a very odd manner. Words of one or two syllables were ok,
but longer than that, Jaws attempted to break them up into individual
syllables.
Flor Lynch asked for the url, and I have not, until now, been able to get
back to the computer with that information.
It is: www.world-science.net.
