betterunix has spoken folks. If we just do what he thinks is best, the world would be a better place. Your little 'opinions' are cute but they ultimately don't matter, because betterunix has decided what is best, and that is that HTML mail is terrible and should be stopped. TEXT FOR US ALL.

- nwienert 14y agoSometimes I think people use these logical classifications to downplay others too liberally. In this case benihana's sarcasm is effective because it uses ad hominem. It's meant to point out that perhaps his response is too absolutist given it's a not widely held opinion.
- raylu 14y agoAgain, should any opinion posted here that is not widely held be prefixed with "in my opinion?" Does that make it more acceptable?
