Re: HTML and Browser Support

Re: HTML and Browser Support

I am responding to several articles with just this one posting to save
bandwidth, they are all in the same thread anyway.

Wow! Colinstein responding for Ojoshirostein! And I thought I was the
only one having multiple egos!  ;-))

Ah! Reversal of facts typical for the asciigangsteins! I was not
plonked, nor did I do any plonking myself either. aardvarko did the
plonking for me, those who were plonked were Veronicastein and
Ojoshirostein. Veronicastein was plonked because of running out of
arguments and therefore posting a response with zero issue related
content. Ojoshirostein was plonked because of contradicting himself in
one and the same line.

Good luck with that proposal, others will continue posting html in aaa,
with or without you agreeing with it, with or without me doing it.

On the other proposal of establishing new aa groups, again good luck
with that one too! The community can barely support two aa groups,
rec.aa is dead, aaaa has more spam and FAQ postings than signal. 

It is a lot better to have one strong group than several weak ones. I
think that elsewhere they call it rightsizing.

        No joke!
