(...) Just venturing a guess, I would say it depends on how long it was in the vacuum before you heated it. If you heated it quickly, it might char a bit (using oxygen trapped within the paper interstices) but I would expect that in most cases it (...) (24 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

Historically, the reason it uses Times Roman (or else the browser's default) rather than Courier (or whatever <PRE> results in) is because the default fixed-width font in both NN & MSIE on low-end 640x480 displays (common (...)
