LC902 and LC901 Crash with Answer

[J. Landman Gay]

That sounds more like a hang rather than a crash, which means LC is 
involved in a lengthy process that is forbidding any other actions.

The answer dialog tries to create html text in order to support text 
styles. My guess is that it's trying to interpret the random characters in 
the base64 text as html and is getting stuck in a loop.
