Apparently, I am at a great loss when it comes to conveying instructions.
However many lines there are, when I flip to a message written in POSTCARD,
the last line should say, "Origin" without my having to scroll down the
screen to find the origin. This means no more than 25 lines including
the header, quoted material, message and origin. Not all readers let you
go back and verify the rules have been complied with, so people should
make allowances. Here I went to an off-topic decision to give the readers
a measure of lee-way, and it has taken over a month to get the rules of
the thread into some skulls. Once again, this message exactly fills the
limitations of the thread. Perhaps I should remove the thread?  -  js
