Gratuitous: does the message contain a plain-text version without artifacts? (I can't check...) If so, it's absurd to punish Yally for including a monospaced HTML version. In Gmail and on iPhone, a plaintext version would be displayed in variable width font (and it can't be toggled on the later). Thus the HTML copy enhances readability-- indeed, all officers should provide it.

Better Reports

In Rule 2143, add the following paragraph at the end:

     Reports SHALL be published in plain text.  Tabular data must
     line up properly when viewed in a monospaced font.  Publishing
     reports that deviate from these regulations is the Class 6 Crime
     of Making My Eyes Bleed.

From Yally's just-posted Registrar report:

[[

NoV: Yally violated R2143, commiting the Class-6 Crime of Making My
Eyes Bleed, by publishing a report in HTML (which is not plain text).
