Most of the time it means your code is mildly fsck'ed in some
way that the compiler figured out for you. You should fix or
remove the broken code.

I'm not trying to offer anything, just stating that you
simply couldn't make it here.  "Doesn't play well with others."

You don't know how they have their browser configured. Besides,
Google Groups is broken. The default for Usenet is fixed width
fonts, probably except for flowing text.

>The "OCR A" font ( Optical Character Recognition ) is best.

Fugly.  Why a font intended for computers instead of one for
humans?  Again, those who care configure their newsreader to
use the best font for them.  But nobody but you and the (now
quite rare) spammers use HTML on Usenet anyway.
