Greetings Visionaires -

I believe the answer to tis dilemma is quite simple.  To make your posting
easier for all subscribers of Vision2020 to access, simply format it in
"plain text", not HTML.  The reasoning for this is the same reason I use
when designing websites.  I set my standards of design at Internet Explorer
Version 4, and Netscape version 5.  Addressing these two browser versions
(and their progressive generations) makes the website accessible by at least
95% of those people online.

Sure, you can use all the fancy backgrounds, colors, and a multitude of
other e-mail functionalities.  But, unless everybody else is using the same
e-mail software (and in some cases the same version), you simply will not
reach them.

So, for the sake of this listserve, let's keep it simple.
