Dear Jane:
We are among those who appreciate your heads-up forwarding of news of
interest...but this and others you forward are heavily formatted and come
across as bloated bundles of KBytes...94KB in the case of the lady
journalist held captive. We don't have, can't get ADSL service out here in
the boondocks, so that's quite a lot of time in downloading. And I know
there are others out there with much slower and less reliable email servers
than ours. Almost as bad as the attachments Allan has to rant about
occasionally. Could you cut and paste from the net to your wordprocessor,
then send off in .txt format? I just did that with the piece in question
and it went from 94K to 41K. Just a thought, from an admirer of your quest
for news of note...
