THANK YOU FOR THE INFO, I WILL CALL THEM. PLEASE NOTE AS I MENTIONED EARLIER I HAVE A LIFE THREATENING DISABILITY THAT REQUIRES THIS FORMAT, I DID APOLOGIZE BUT HALACHICALLY INCONVENIENCE OR FRUSTRATION DOESNT OUTWEIGH MEDICAL NEED AND I AM GLAD TO EDUCATE PEOPLE AND I AM SURE YOU MEANT WELL, I DONT KNOW YET HOW TO REPLY WITHOUT QUOTE OR PRIVATELY SO I DONT MEAN TO EMBARASS AS YOU DIDNT KNOW I NEED ACCESSIBLE FORMATTING.

People won’t know that if you don’t mention it on each thread because the site is no longer searchable by user. I honestly have no clue what thread you’re referring to. However, there is a bold option- if you go into the full editor (press post a reply or preview or quote someone), the second blue box under one text editor says “bold”. Hope that helps

HI FOLKS. I AM TRYING BOLD BUT I DONT THINK IT LOOKS DIFFERENT, WHOEVER FINDS IT HARD ON EYES TO READ SHOULD NOT DO IT, JUST LIKE I CANT WRITE REGULAR TEXT WITHOUT SEVERE DAMAGE, IF USE BOLD, IT COMES OUT USUALLY A BIT SMALLER CAPS AND BETTER TO READ BUT I HAVE BOLD HIGHLIGHTED AND ITS NOT WORKING. I AM NOT LOOKING TO TROUBLE ANYONE. I TRIED THE GOOGLE NUMBER SOMEONE LEFT IT DOESNT WORK. I DONT HAVE ANY MOUNT KISCO PHONE BOOK BUT IT ANYONE DOES ON THIS PLATFORM AND CAN TELL ME A WEISSMANDEL NUMBER I WOULD APPRECIATE. SOMETIMES THINGS ARE NOT MEANT TO HAPPEN, I JUST USED TO WALK IN THEIR BEAUTIFUL NATURE CENTER THERE DECADES AGO AND I COULD HAVE ACTUALLY GONE THERE AND AT LEAST SPOKEN TO THE REBBETZIN OR THE KIDS, BUT ALL I KNEW THEN WAS MY MOTHER TOLD ME THERE WAS A GREAT TORAH COMMUNITY THERE, I NEVER KNEW THE SHAICHUS PERSONALLY TO US. FOR ALL THOSE WHO DONT KNOW, RABBI WEISSMANDEL WORKED WITH GIZI FLEISHMAN AND OTHERS IN JEWISH UNDERGROUND RESISTANCE WHERE ALL SECTS OF JEWS WORKED TOGETHER, SOME LESSER KNOWN MADE THE SLOVAK SLAVE LABOR CAMPS THAT PREVENTED SO MANY INCLUDING MY HEILGE MOMMA FROM BEING DEPORTED TO DEATH, AND SOME MONITORED THEM, AND GIZI WATCHED THE SCHOOLS AND BRIBED EICHMANN TO SEND CHILDREN TO THERISIENSTADT LABOR CAMP AND THEN TO SWITZERLAND, THE MONEY RAN OUT AND THEY MADE THE FIRST JOURNEY BUT ONCE THEY FOUND AND SHOT HER, SLOWLY THE CHILDREN WERE TAKEN TO AUSCHWITZ ANYWAY, BUT MANY WOMEN AND CHILDREN WERE SAVED. RABBI WEISSMANDEL TRIED TO MAKE THE EUROPA PLAN FOR ALL EUROPE TO BE SAFE FOR JEWS, BUT THERE WASNT ENOUGH MONEY AND HE ALONE JUMPED FROM THE CATTLE CAR, MY MOTHER AND I DONT KNOW IF HE SAID GOODBYE TO HIS FAMILY, IF HE WAS TOGETHER WITH THEM AND THEY REFUSED TO JUMP, I AM SURE HE TOLD HIS NEW FAMILY, BUT WHAT HE DID AFTER THE WAR WAS GO TO CHRISTIAN ORPHANAGES FOR VERY LITTLE CHILDREN AND THESE HIDDEN CHILDREN WOULD HAVE BEEN LOST TO US BUT HE SAID THE SHEMA AND WHOEVER ANSWERED HIM HE TOOK WITH HIM AND SAVED TO OUR PEOPLE. AND HE ALSO REESTABLISHED TORAH WITH YESOMIM AND THESE BACHURIM WERE ALL GIVEN SHIDDUCHS BY HIM ONCE THEY GOT TO USA. SO I THINK AT LEAST FOR THOSE WHO DONT KNOW THE DETAILS WE SHOULD ALL KNOW WHAT A TZADDIK HE WAS. THE NAMES OF THE MEN WHO MADE THE SLAVE LABOR CAMPS MY MOMMA AMUSH PUT IN HER BOOK, I DONT RECALL THEM BY HEART, BUT THEY DID THE MOST SUCCSESSFUL RESISTANCE SAVING THOUSANDS INCLUDING MY MOMMA HER MOMMA AND HER BROTHER. HAKARAS HATOV IS FOREVER IS OUR MOTTO. ANYWAY I WILL WRITE SHORTER NEXT TIME, AND I DONT KNOW HOW OF IF PRIVATE REPLIES CAN BE DONE, IF ANYONE WANTS MORE INFO AND ISNT BOTHERED BY THE LARGE TYPE AND WISH TO REPLY PRIVATELY IF THAT IS PERMITTED ON THIS PLATFORM, I AM NEW TO IT, THEN PLEASE DO SO, AND I APOLOGIZE I FEEL SO STRONGLY THE JEWISH HEROES OF THE HOLOCAUST ARE BEING FORGOTTEN WE HAVE FOUND SO MANY AND ALSO MANY DESCENDANTS AND I JUST FEEL WE SHOULD TRY HERE. THE DESCENDANTS FAR DOWN WILL NEVER TRULY UNDERSTAND HOW IT FELT BUT ITS STILL CHASHUV TO GIVE THANKS. MAYBE I WILL LOOK UP THE OTHER LESS FAMOUS NAMES OF THOSE WHO I THINK WERE NOT FRUM WHO MORE DIRECTLY SAVED MY MOMMA AND GIVE THANKS TO THEIR DESCENDANTS TOO. A GOOD SHABBOS.

Would it be possible to use paragraph spacing? A long run-on paragraph (especially in all caps lock) is hard on the brain and people will skim through it without getting all the information to be able to help you properly..

Hi tzippy123 and welcome.

I don't think your post has bolded text, but that's OK.

I think we do need to figure out how you can post and others can read - it's super hard to read long blocks of capitalized text and you have so much valuable information to share.

Would it be possible to hit enter twice after every few sentences (or even after each?) to add some whitespace and just break the text up a bit? People will be able to read what you wrote and answer your questions...

I did read about the tremendous work Rabbi Weismandel and his assistants did to save neshama during WWII. I think the book was "The Unheeded Cry"? It's a zechus to try to publicize his efforts to a new generation... And a zechus that you're mother has published her memories. Wishing you and your family much Hatzlachah!

GREAT IDEA.

I TRIED ADJUSTING THE ABOVE TO DARKEN AND MAKE SMALLER
BUT ON MY OLD LAPTOP THEY DONT WORK

I CANT CONTINUE IF I CANT GET IT TO WORK
ACTUALLY NOT WRITING ACROSS THE PAGE SEEMS
TO BE THE MOST IMPORTANT FOR SAFETY

WHICH IS WHY IT WAS SO HARD TO HELP
MY MOMMA GET HER BOOK DONE BUT IT
WAS A GREAT KAVOD

I AM ABOUT TO WITHDRAW FROM THIS FORUM
IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO GET THE BOLD AND
SMALL TO WORK ON THE MESSAGE SPACE WRITE ME PRIVATELY AND
IT WOULD HELP. [b]

OTHERWISE IT MEANS HASHEM DOESNT
FEEL THIS IS RIGHT FOR ME. I HAVE TO SAVE
THE EYE USE FOR MY MOMMAS SECOND BOOK
AND EVEN THAT IS QUESTIONABLE

SO NO WORRIES
