The joy of e-mail, in addition to its speed compared to snail mail, is the ability to send family, friends, and acquaintances cartoons and photographs with text. Using Netscape and occasionally Internet Explorer and their default mail appelets, it works wonderfully well. Since your appelet posts only code, it would appear you are not using the aforementioned defaults. Also, I have neither the time to create my own Web page nor the incentive to maintain it. Thus, I continue to enjoy the convenience of e-mail. Terry Larry Kopitnik wrote: > A respectful request to those who have recently posted photos to the list: > Please don't.
