Hi;
I recently received a e-mail from my son asking that I join face-book so I 
would be on his friends list.  Well I tried but it asks you to enter a 
password that apparently shows up as a graphic.  They graciously offer a 
link that supposedly speaks the info you need to enter.  Apparently they 
intentionally distort the audio so it can't be picked up with speech 
recognition software.  Either I have a hearing problem or it is just about 
unintelligible.  Has anyone else had a similar problem?  I haven't played 
with yahoo much but I was left with the idea that they do something similar. 
Is there any solution?

As for the Braille note and other note takers,  I doubt you can put echo 
link on any of them which is a bit unfortunate.  I suspect the same holds 
true with logging software.  I'm not so interested in echo link but it would 
be nice to use a notetaker to run a logging program.
Richard
