Is it just me, or did SmittyUSN1 at aol.com say:

It was indeed stuck.  I unstuck it.  And what in the heck is "the fairys
fat filter" [sic]?

And your 62% figure means what, exactly?  That there is 62% of the public
that likes paying more for service that is substandard compared to what a
regional ISP can and will give you?  That they don't mind having to use
proprietary network stacks to connect when Windows, Mac, Linux, and every
other OS under the modern sun all have native TCP/IP and PPP stacks
already?  That they don't mind having their inbound email screwed over when
AOL goes overboard and starts filtering all mail from some locations on
-false- alarms?

What exactly is the -positive- significance of that statistic again?  :)

And I note that in the message you got stuck, you were still lazy and
inconsiderate enough to send multipart/alternative instead of doing exactly
what you say above is clearly possible, and you've proven you -can- do it
when you feel ignored enough to bother changing tactics.  Given this, I
have no pity for any heat you take for your bloated HTML-inclusive posts.
You're -intentionally- sending them that way, which simply shows a willing,
intentional disregard for others.  Hey, if inconsideration is what you're
all about, feel free.  But don't bloody come after -Ken- with an attitude
when you're speaking from a Clue Disadvantaged position.  You're not even
-using- the version in question, as Ken rightly pointed out, nor have you
since answered his challenge to point out anything similar for -8.0-.  And
no, it's not stuck in the approval queue. :)

If you have something constructive to say, say it.  If you don't, why don't
you go get your attitude adjusted, Wayne?  I'm pretty damned sure it's
misaligned.

Geez, and I thought -I- could be a dick...

Sorry to anyone else that reads this and takes issue with my tone.  I just
hit Smitty Attitude Overload.
