    6161Comment buttons read well. Noticed, however, some blank links. On investigation:
    62 right before posts, there is a link that's not read, but, when tested w/Jaws ReadCharacter function, is translated to character 61705. A blank link prior to comments is translated as character 61697. I rather suspect these might be genericons. I posted to the A11Y team earlier that these are becoming problematic, as, by default, they're not read by screenreaders. Perhaps they're just arrows or something & have no significance, but it is disconcerting to have blank links. On the other hand, they might serve to collapse the menu items, which really might be problematic. If I have some extra time, I'll look at the source in order to gain more insight into this.
