You don't do computer support for ~600 faculty, staff and students, in addition to the myriad mailing lists I'm on. You would not believe what some folks consider acceptable for 'professional' email correspondence. People do things like pick ornate script fonts at 8 points on floral backgrounds to send official email, and embed page-wide animated gifs' of stupid little smiley blobs doing the wave in their .sig <http://msnemotions.org/emoticons/1572.Smiliey-Wave.html> So you see it in every....damn....email you get from them. -- Bruce Johnson "Wherever you go, there you are" B.
