   When you write stuff worth being quoted four times, then I'll get
around to flaming you for line length. :)



   Also, my normal line length message reads something like this:

   [Hint: press return every 70 characters or so. Makes it much easier
to quote you]

   It's not an order, or even really a flame. Just a helpful
suggestion that _most_ people catch on to rather quickly. By using
lines of a nonexcessive length, everyone is much happer in the long
run. Unfortunately, some people that insist on being old farts still
haven't gotten the message yet.
