Hello,

Yes I agree to the no-attachments/all caps policy but
I object to the use of my country of birth Nigeria as an (bad)
example viz
>You may also end up getting weighted towards
> Nigerian bank 
> spam by some types of filtering packages :D

"You may end up getting weighed towards spam by some filtering
packages" would have sufficed without hurting anyone's feelings.

I love web standards, CSS, WSG and this very helpful and
informative list and I know there are people out there who are
giving my country a bad name but do we have to rub it in? We
have a lot of nice honest folks in Nigeria including yours truly
you know.

...Sorry everyone if this is offpoint just had to get that off
my chest! 

David.
