When I'm typing a message I watch the number in the Col: on the Status
Line on the bottom of MultiMail.

I try keeping the lines below 73 characters long because the last part
of my words might get lost if the system it goes through doesn't do a
Line Wrap or CRLF (Carriage Return Line Feed).

Who knows, there may be more than 73 Lurkers reading messages in this
Echo.

The Teletype Machines I used in the Navy would POUND that 65th spot
over and over until it either saw a CRLF or the Teletype Operator
would press a Button to make the Printhead go back to the start of a
line, and also Raise the Paper up one line so the new text wouldn't
mess up what had already been printed on the paper.

To get back on Topic: A Farmer told me when the Sun was so high that
he could put his foot on the shadow of his head on the ground, he knew
it was time to come to the house and eat.

That's a Memory isn't it?
