Just because my local paper uses a red font on green background, news shouldn't do the same. news (usenet) is a completely different medium from a newspaper. or a book.
usenet is a plaintext medium... allways has been, allways will be. mail is historically also a plaintext medium, and many like it that way. some wants to format their text with 20pt heigh italic fonts, and weird backgrounds and whatnot ... but I don't want to see any such formatting. it's just plain ugly. I have a monospace font in mozilla mailnews. at a fixed size. I like it that way, and don't want anyone to force me to see different formatting than the one I selected. I'm sure this won't be enough to satisfy you and stop this discussion, but I think this whole thread has gotten into the state of beeing an endless loop of trolling and bitchslapping. or something like that :) -- Morten Nilsen, aka Dr. P We are the borg^]dbdbiMicrosoft.
