Oh yeh, I can see them military strongmen approaching now. Actually, now
that they're closer, it looks like some poorly dressed computer nerds
experiencing sunlight for the first time. Get hurt... Yeh sure. In this
world, the ruler is who presents the best argument.

Umm, like fscking DUH! What he said, was he replied to the original message,
his newsreader said "Hey, the message he was replying to was HTML, and the
person who'll want to know about his reply the most can therefore read HTML"
and started the new message as a HTML doccument. Therefore, your argument is
flawed...

>If I was you I would quit now before you dig yourself a deeper hole :)

When someone feels they are cleary in the right, they have to right to prove
to whoever, that they are. Whether that is for better or worse is neither
here nor there to the matter itself, although it may matter to the people
involved.

And I consider posting 500k to a newsgroup a much greater sin than posting
some piddly HTML, which people can edit out with ease, even if they can't
view it as it was meant to be seen.

Anyway, here I am, with my megaphone, shouting about something incredibly
trivial. I guess I'm no better than any of you after all :)

Erryn
