BTW, Neal, your line lengths could use some work. 72-75 is a good

Sure it isn't you? I'm set to "wrap at 72" for new posts. But it could
be my NS Comm is damaged.

Larry's hasn't been wrong yet, but the post I was responding to, John
Neal's http://www.lugnet.com/off-topic/debate/?n=3107 , apeared for

All's well here as well.  I think the blame lies with an incompatible reader
;-)

Sorry, it's in the web interface as well ;)

(...) A post of yours chastised me for my line lengths, I believe. I chose to respond to one and only one of your chastisements, and it was whim that made me respond to this one rather than that one. (25 years ago, 4-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
