[blindlaw] Track changes via JAWS

[Alosha Moore]

good afternoon all:
This process has become so complex, confusing, and time-consuming, that I have simply asked my professors and editors to include the corrections in brackets. I intend to tackle this obstacle when Time is not such a rare commodity, but the method above is a reasonable temporary solution and has worked well for me.
Kind regards, Alosha Moore.
