Thanks for clearing that up Michael. Re-reading the JFK example makes a lot more sense now.
Do you have any examples I can reference?

Sorry, this is all still very new to me. Steve On Tue, Mar 20, 2012 at 12:05 PM, Michael Nosal <mno...@mitre.org> wrote: > These can be created with SpanHighlightDecorators.
