This message is for MrMJM. Since you are only recently rejoining us, I am
blind. I have attempted to access your sight, and I regret to inform you it
is a blind person's nightmare. I am going to let you see what in part your
sight looks like to me.

You see, we can only go on the text you give us. I have read some of your
work via the trek writer's guild, but I'd really like to get it from your
sight. TWG is very slow with updates. I hope you can do something about
this.
Sincerely,
Nehemiah
