These two post makes me think back to the humble beginnnings when FAQs
were text based because everything was then and email just came to be
read not decyphered. <sigh> Yes the pace of progress marches on but just
because some company comes out with a product dosn't mean it's
compatible/ useable by the greater number of people.

Since the great blow up over HTML in email by default (a no-no btw) we
have calmed down, & I welcome any back to the fold who have returned.

I have been posting a lot lately, I hope I'm 'value added'- perhaps
leading (by exanple?) and also learning with an open mind. We need some
structure but there is no King of Scirocconia to goveren over us mere
mortals, so we'll have to police ourselves, eh?


I think your right in that the write up should be in HTML as it will
have to get converted one way or another, esp what with Pix and all.
This is waaay different than sending the list little tiny print in
lavender and expecting me to read it.
