Probably in about six months or so I will have an HTML
version of WillMaster Possibilities for folks who prefer
such delivery.

My own delivery preference ASCII text.

I do a lot of work off-line. Prefer it that way. My HTML
email program tends to grab the dialer at random moments
while I'm reading -- probably from banner refresh code.
Those that do, get unsubscribed. It's a hassle.

However, there are rare exceptions. Exceptions which not
only have great content, but they are also considerate of
those who wish to remain off-line while reading their
publication.

And one of those exceptions is Eldon Sarte's daily
e-Factory NewsDesk. Folks really should go to the site and
take a look at an issue or two. The subscribe URL is 
http://e-factory.com/news/subscribe.html 

Sincerely,

William
