No, Greg, it's simpler to ask that we extend the courtesy of posting
in a format (or sans format, actually) that can be read with *any*
newsreader, be it Netscape, MSIE, Agent, or slrn. HTML is fine for Web
pages and (arguably) software documentation but there are really few
benefits (specified fonts, colored text) I can think of for posting HTML
on a news server.
