Good luck, Dave...I'm afraid the Philistines and windmills are winning this
one.  Bah humbug.

(On another list whose host (i.e. it's running on his gear and using his
bandwidth and storage, and a big attachment sent to the list clogs his
entire business for several hours), a serious text-o-phile, is a good
friend of mine, a similar request brought a response from one user which
essentially said (*#&($*& you, I have to do it for work and I'll do it here
if I want to so if you don't like it tough!  I was impressed with Lou's
restraint in responding to this challenge.  The individual in question is
still alive and well -- and still using HTML on the list.  Guess we're all
getting patient in our old age).
