Again I remind you, the message appeared on this sytem as being from you in
its entirety.  The quoted portions (now I know what they are) looked
identical in layout to the other portions (as they did in Ben's quote).

Bill did not need to edit anything to make it appear that way.

I use an IBM VGA display.

Does that make his statements about your message layout invalid?

Everyone's wrong except you?
