I have been posting to mailing lists, BBS, Usenet and other incarnations of news groups since the earliest days of computer communications. So it is safe to assume that I am aware of this recommendation. The operative word being "recommended", not a legally enforceable decree. Robert, I am puzzled why you appear to be targeting my posts. In over a decade I have posted hundreds messages to this list and in the last few weeks I posted just two messages in HTML format, both of which you have attacked. You are not a list moderator and have no authority to appoint yourself as "the list police". Maybe you are aware of the mailing list recommendation, not to fill the archives with worthless exchanges such as this. Therefore, I suggest any further communication on this subject be taken off-list.
