    Sure.

1. Only in America......can a pizza get to your house faster than an
ambulance.

2. Only in America......are there handicap parking places in front of a
skating rink.

3. Only in America......do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the
back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy
cigarettes at the front.

4. Only in America......do people order double cheese burgers, large fries,
and a diet coke.

Sequence:
Mark text
CNTL-F7, Regex, marked text, find \>\S*, replace with nothing, replace all
ALT-L a few times.  Might be able to mark and do that, not sure, let me try in
another window.  Nope, flows it all together.  Ah well.  Point is, you can do
it.

    Of course, I'd much rather have an external editor so I would have to
remember how to do that in this editor /and/ in a dozen other editors.

    Also costs $20.  Me, give me vim, it is free and more powerful than TB!'s
editor and clipmate together ever will be.

    I'd rather they got IMAP done right, removed all the interface quirks, was
standards compliant, had a good PGP implementation, sane reflow, external
editor support all before plugins to costly modules which provide little, if
any, added functionality for the person who wants to stop and try things in
the tools they are given.  Yeah, cocky, but I mean I didn't know how to do
that search and replace in TB! 3 minutes ago.
