That guy may be a nut, but he's *correct* about your lines. Your lines aren't wrapped correctly for Usenet. This is not a Google Group. Your lines should hard wrap with a newline, i.e., ASCII CR LF per spec., at 72 characters or so. Either your Usenet reader has a setting to do this, or you must manually hit return before 72 characters. I.e., on my browser, I had to enter newlines above or it would be one single line. In this thread, Usenet text wrapping for posts by "rickman" and by "David Brown" are incorrect.
