MT, why don't you use the "Quote" buttons? They make following the threads back easier, when you can click on the link generated and see the actual post you're responding to?

Hey it works.  Thanks, Ami.

Hey it works.  Thanks, Ami.

Don't forget to edit the quote section down to the point you're responding to.

If you want to make multiple sections (as you usually do) you can either copy and paste the [quote][/quote] tags, or use the "Insert Quote" links  on the response page to include a new copy of the quoted post. I generally use the former, unless I'm quoting from more than one one post, when I use the latter.

The flipside to the coin is that the smaller, but historically more powerful segment of Iraqi society has suddenly lost all of its power. For them, it is no choice but to fight. They know the evils they allowed to take place in order to keep a Sunni-dominated society. They expect retribution. We came in and turned their world upside down, stripped them of their power and put them out into the streets. For some Sunni it is fight, or live under Shi'a rule.

How was this avoided in South Africa?

The letters are too little, purple background is hard to read.  I prefer the old <<quotes>>

Highlight them and you get white on black.

Reading glasses can help.

Changing font size and color wthin the quote is a goody as well

I didn't know you could do that, thanks, Sirs.
Ami, I have trifocals, that's all I can do.

Actually, you could also set Firefox to override the text selections, making them larger or changing the colors. There is even a Firefox extension that allows to edit the CSS sent out by BT's software.

There is lots you can do.
