That may be true, but some of use prefer cartoons in our manuals. ;o)

Oh, they inform you alright, they've just become so slick at informing us,
that we often don't realize what's happening...

But people don't design messages. They write a message on top of some 
pre-existing layout template, whether that template enhances the message 
or not.

The set of people that I trust to be able to both write interesting 
content and design an HTML message that would act to enhance is exactly 
identical to the set of people I trust not to need enhancements in the 
first place.
