    Stockja - you might try using the full screen viewing mode, activated by clicking on the 'full' word/icon on the lower right hand corner of the Slideshare frame. The slides should be viewable/legible in the full screen mode. If this doesn’t resolve to your satisfaction, drop me a note and I’ll send a copy to you directly.

    The presentation on Slideshow is so small I can’t read some of the slides - I wish I could download as, even with a magnifying glass it’s hard to distinquish the words imbedded in graphics.
