Dear David:
I wanted to read your post, I *tried* to read your post, but as you can
see from the quoted bit above (abridged), it's near-impossible.
This is due to a bug somewhere between Apple's Mail program (the likely
culprit) and the server that handles our posts for this list. As you
can see, any kind of "high ASCII" character gets garbled, which then
affects the entire message. This post itself might have "20s" on the
end of each line just because I *quoted* your high-ascii stuff.
Please, carefully go through your sigs (that's usually where the
problem lies, and in the case of yours above it's clear that this is
the problem) and change them to PLAIN TEXT. I had a problem exactly
like this in one of my sigs until I looked more carefully and
discovered that the apostrophes and quotemarks weren't plain text but
"curled." Changing that solved the problem.
Thanks!
