Email and expression



i liked your comments, it wasn't on conveying more than just words
is allways a chalange when dealing with plain text messages, but here's another
view, think about how many books use only one typeface throughout the entire
book, all emotion is conveyed through words, not fonts, or tables, or frames. 
i think plain text email is nice because it makes you consider your words more
carefully, and not what color your !'s are.
