John and others,

This reinforces my opinion that we are all better off to stick to
established conventions even if they do not suit our individual
preferences. If the document had been a Word document in the first

As for the attachment that you have sent, my email system doesn't seem
to recognize the filetype of "application/x-sun-default". 

Regards, Jim Moore
