As of today I am actually caught up with all the past email from this list. That is, except for today. My New Year's Hope is that I will do better this year at keeping up. I found the chart below to be very valuable. I did not have another quite like it. I was able to save it in word with 10 pages of information rather than the 34 that came in the original chart, contributed by Sugar who found it for us. I saved space by combining lines and separating where the line breaks were with semicolons and colons, and retaining some original punctuation marks. My reasoning was that my screen reader always reads the punctuation marks I used out loud so I could keep track of the separations without arrowing down or forgetting what I was reading. Also if I copy it to braille I will want to save the space. There may be some errors, but I like what I took time to do with the chart. I can send it again with my changes if anybody is interested. If anybody is still reading, another reason I like the chart is because it spells a number of words that I never knew how to spell before, having only heard them spoken.
