The colors are painful from here, and unfortunately, you can't expect
everyone to calibrate to your monitor -- try using colors from the web
safe
palette (http://www.lynda.com/hexh.html) if you want to have more
control
over what people see.

This is not a social list.  Sure, the people who've been here awhile may
spend *some* time playing, but it's primarily a list for getting things
done, so please help keep it on topic.  (I read it from work even on
crazy-busy days because there's almost always something useful for
exactly
what I'm doing and because it's such a low-fluff list.)

BTW, I don't know what's making my posts bounce -- I've messed with
Damned
Outlook's preferences -- sorry for the MIME crap.
