Yes, well thank you for the MIME post. I'm on a NeXT, and I assure you that I can't see what's been posted. I'm not so much bothered about space or "bandwidth", the only thing I object to is that I have no access to the post. However, I think your "object lesson" is a failed one. If people were posting to the SUN, AT&T, [insert other computer brand here] newsgroup, yes, the posting of an RTF post would be as assinine as yours was. The point, as I see it, is that this group is intended for NeXT specific information, and the use of a NeXT specific formating language seems far more appropriate then yours. IMHO- If there is no specific reason to post RTF don't- let the rest of the world learn the merits of NeXTdom. But if there is a blatant reason to use RTF for the post (ie, sending a NeXT specific Icon on the NeXT specific newsgroup), don't you think people could just let it lie? Oh yes, and the posting of MIME messages on this newsgroup is nothing more then masterbation. I hope it was good for the poster, but it leaves me unimpressed. Perhaps it's just too sane to fly, Jake EMAIL: sunthej@alleg.edu
