Re: underlined links

I depend on those blue underlined pieces of text  to tell me where the links
are.  And I might add that Javascript links are not particularly accessible
to someone with a screen reader.  The blue underlined text is easy for me to
pick out on the screen.  It is scannable with the eye so I can tell were
they are.

Sincerely,

Mike Burks
