Since it was posted to comp.infosystems.www.authoring.html, it was a
relevant posting.  You ought to tell him that requesting a look-see
by those on this newsgroup shouldn't be cross-posted to food newsgroups.

Well, I'm not impressed with Robin Williams, so this statement means
nothing to me.  And yes, we are all capable of forming our own 
opinions about it.  He posted on this newsgroup looking for critiques,
or I assumed he did, since that is what posters usually are looking
for when they ask html newsgroup subscribers to look at their pages. 
Silly me, I shouldn't have assumed....

First of all, LizR, I did not post everything twice.  Before you make
smart-ass remarks, you should get the whole story. My Internet provider 
was having problems and sent the message through twice.

Secondly, I did not deal with it by e-mail because of the reasons
mentioned in section 2's answer.

Thirdly, why didn't YOU take it to e-mail?

And lastly, I'm sorry I ever responded to this damn request, because
everyone apparently gets off on looking at monkeys' wee-wees on the
'Net, based on the defensive responses to my posting.

I truly hope this closes the issue.
