    Why have you put hard returns into your comment? Have you heard of the new technology people have, "word wrapping".

    With word wrapping, anyone can select the width they want to view their text at, and the text adjusts for them.

    It's like the difference between a well designed site and one "designed for 800 by 600".

    The UID of the original poster is only 5 digits long. Take a look at the number next to the name and you can see how new they are. The smaller the number the longer they've been around. CmdrTaco has UID 1 for example.
