My messages are apparently not in Sam's preferred font, since he Sam
never ever neither reads -- speedily or otherwise -- nor responds to
me. It's gotta be m(y)Font! Blame it on the Font, that's me ticket...

Better than, Sam wishes me dead and merely treats me as if I already was.

What do people reading via Braille do? Fast fingerings?

I agree with that. See what I did there? He he...

Regardless of what speed reading is or is not, I just read. When I get
bored, I seek a new page. I am a major fan of The Gutenberg Project. I
get to search+read the greats. Copyrights all expired, still Writers.

NevermindMeIsmIshQ: Braille assignments have also been created for
mathematical and musical notation. However, because the six-dot
braille cell allows only 64 (2^6) patterns, including the space, the
characters of a braille script commonly have multiple values,
depending on their context. That is, character mapping between print
and braille is not one-to-one. (This per MAC+Wikipedia+Dictionary App.)
