A little bird just told me that you could send the same
information, just as clearly, in plain text, using
a fraction of the bandwidth.

If you are this worried about appearances over substance and
this disdainful of wasting bandwidth on an over-taxed internet,
I am very glad that I am not one of your users.

All the mail I get from Earthlink is in plain text.

When they notify me that I've successfully logged on to their
network, it's in plain text.
