Re: CHAT: A question on quoted text

Irina... not all of us can CONTROL how our messages
look to you.  It's not as though we're doing it to be lazy
or inconsiderate.

For instance, I don't seem to get a choice on this wretched
Netscape mailer.  When I type, it prints in proportional
spacing, which I hate, and then it appears, all distorted,
on the list, as courier.  If I ask it to change to Fixed Width, then
it gives me a warning, saying that I've opted for HTML
characters.
