Maybe, but still you push: I was referring from memory (I earned my first money hacking for a DTP product) about what I read about typographical Line_length which is at least normatively set to between 45 and 75 characters. Illogical to keep one foot in both camps. With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday' Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". The enemy of (IT) success is complexity. In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice. Suck that fhit	[reply]
