Hi Mark, thank you very much for your input on how you use threaded 
conversations.
So far, I'm quite liking it. However, can anyone advise on how I can get rid of 
Voiceover always saying: 2 message conversation collapsed disclosure triangle 
etc. After every message. For me personally, its too much verbosity coming from 
VO. 

Thanks

Daniel
