(...) yah, I got the same exact mail, and also got it on one of the lego club mailing lists I read - with the exact same message id - massive spamming, imo... I think that site should be removed from the nomination. but that's just me :) (23 years ago, 8-May-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) If it was 80, and most screens were 80x24, as soon as the first quote happened it would wrap wrong. :) 72 has been the de-facto standard for as long as I can remember (i think? was it ever mentioned in an RFC?). (23 years ago, 5-May-01, to lugnet.admin.general)
