I think our little bit of fun has probably tried the patience of
fellow list members far enough and will revert to plain text as of now.

I've always thought I should write something like
what Clem wrote, as quoted bellow. Being exposed
to the Internet for more than 12 years I have subscribed
to many many different lists. Most of them are
very good lists with very good professionals and
amateurs. I've learned a lot with all of them
Ops! I've goofed off.
Where I wrote Clem in my previous message please read Jim. Sorry
