Tater . . . LOL

I totally forgot about the mush that comes with formatting. Especially for
AOLers. I know there are other mail progs out there that don't accept
HTMLing of stuff, but I wasn't aware it was this far spread. ::sigh::

Perhaps I should leave the attachments off permanently?? I'm really not
sure. Any input from everyone would be appreciated. Or my lil bait boy
could go off and make a poll about it. :) I'm just saying......
