Joseph, David Love, and others,
Foot marks in plain text make just fine apostrophes, as inch 
marks work nicely as quotes. They're also more nearly 
decipherable in the text, and the message will happily come in 
around 10K shorter. Look at this in plain text mode and see 
how unreadable it is.

Humor me for a minute and open one of your messages in your 
mail client. Go to View, and click Message Source. Now scroll 
down through what was actually sent until you get past the 
header to the message. Now scroll down through the message. 
It'll take a while. Now do the same for a 3-4K text message. 
You'll see a similar mess of header stuff, but when you get to 
the message, it's there, it's short, and it displays on screen 
like readable text.

The thing is, I'd like to be able to read what you guys are 
saying.

Thanks,
Ron N
