That's very interesting and it certainly does seem inelegant and wasteful
although I can't imagine bandwith is really a problem with all the video's
being sent around.
I agree that attachements, embedded pictures, animated signatures, etc. have
no place here. It's odd though that the only complaint I've gotten about
posting since signing up as the twelth internet user in Maine (outside of
educational institutions, anyway) was for my line feeds producing broken up
text. The concensus then was, "leave the line wraps to the reader".
I recently had to reinstall Windows and OE. I don't know at this point what
format I was posting in previously. I've set it back to plain text to see
how it works. I'm curious though how it handles links like this one:
