So you say excel and word-x.x -Attachments and emails are
no problem either, do you? Cause they are 'contemporary', too.
Like Spam is. Like MS is. 

Heavens, you write to be understood[1], and if you talk in an
Inuit-dialect, don't be shocked if most of the rest of the
world won't understand a word of what you say. And don't come
and say that for you all of the world has to learn your tongue,
be it 'contemporary' or not.

<FLAME mode=very_warm>
As in 'contempory mail program' --- maybe get one that does not
make lines like
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+++++++
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+++++
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++++++++
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+++++++
+++++++++++.
cause that looks STUPID and is *hard* to the eyes and is
annoying to boot. Or is that 'contemporary' nowadays? And just
because it looks OK with your reader it *must* be OK with all
others? Look at my one-shot .sig to know what I think about
that!
</FLAME>

[1] I hope, else you write to annoy; in that case BE GONE.
