What exactly is your problem Derek?  Telling people they should be shot 
for sending HTML-only mail or saying that it's "telling" that 
top-posters post in HTML.  Get off your high-horse!  The fact that I 
prefer top-posting and don't double-check whether my email client does 
as I have instructed it to, tells you #$%t about me.

Mistakes happen - get over it!  No need to be insulting.
