Those of us who are bothered by the lack of traditional 'format'...well, we just need to get over it. We can surely be adult enough, understanding enough to allow for everyone's style. This IS a message board established for entertainment purposes...it's not a traditional classroom setting...there are no professors grading our posts.

I think you're missing the points I was trying to make. An unformatted block of text three screen long is very difficult to read and make sense of, IMNSHO. And any post that you have to page down six or eight times, unless it's really of interest to you, gets tedious and boring, at least to me, and so i quit reading it. What I'm saying is that if what you have to say is important enough to post, shouldn't you presnt it in such a way to attract as many readers as possible? Interesting discussion, so I've opened the thread, is there anyone who at least can see my point of view, even if you don't agree with me?
