Depends on the DPI setting you have. If 24 is too big, drop down to
20 or less.

JP> What is the story or joke about this Shipwrecked ?
Well, it is a play on words of sorts. Shipp is the name. Hesperus
is the street that I live on (in a neighborhood called Longfellow).
And Longfellow had a story or poem called "The Wreck of the Hesperus".
I put it all together into a tag line which gets filled in
automatically to give a date/time stamp for when the message was first
composed. Except that the year has to be set manually. You made me
realize that I have not done that this year!!
