These patterns reminded me--has anybody come up with email stationary yet?  
It would only be useable if one can get an "overwrite" cursor and not the 
"insert" one that is commonly the default.  I use PINE, and if somebody 
knows of a way to get to "overwrite," PLEASE email me!  If using an 
"email stationary," one would have to manually make their text margins 
2-3 cm narrower than their stationary, but it might turn out ok.

I know it's sorta anal, but would be unique and entertaining (After a few 
messages, it would probably get old and tiresome!)

Man, scrolling through those long posts at 1200 baud is a bitch!

           | Gee,  I think so,  but I don't think I could    |
