I never assume anything I write is going to stay in one place. Likely  
I'm gonna want to move it from TW to word processor at some point.  
Once you've formatted a document with EasyEdit, even if it's just  
bolding and maybe a bulleted list -- about the only formatting I ever  
use in a TW -- the only way to get it back to plain text is to  
manually remove the html coding. So like I say, I use EasyEdit very  
infrequently.

Now if there was something that would allow you to export to plain  
text, that would be another matter. I would probably use it more  
often, and make more use of formatting. As it is, I get along fine.
