AOL, BackTalk and word wrap
| 
Jan 24 17:44 UTC 1998 |
This is the item text. There's a place in Longmeadow, Massachusetts, called
the Fanny Stebbins Refuge. It's a big piece of woods and meadows located on
the floodplain of the Connecticut River. A few little tributary brooks run
through it. In the spring freshet every year, the ground gets soaked and you
can't drive on any of the roads. I had to call a wrecker and be winched out of
there on April Fool's day one year.

Here's a test response.
There are large populations of butterflies and moths there. The only specimens
of Utetheisa bella I've ever seen were flying in on of the wet meadows. There
are Harvester butterflies there, the only carnivorous butterflies in North
America. Their larvae feed on aphids. I once followed a flock of Brown
Thrashers from one end of a wooded patch to the other. A group of true loonies
from the Natural History museum would go there on hot humid July nights and set
up framed white sheets with UV lights shining on them in order to attract
insects. Nobody ever wore any insect repellant because repelling insects was
the opposite of what they wanted to do. They (we, I admit it) would stand
there in the swarms of insects attracted by the UV lights, being bitten and
stung more or less continually and not even noticing it until the next day.

Those look fine viewed with Picospan. The word wrap
appears to have happened. But for better appearance
and readability, there should be adequate left and
right margins.

No, you only have to worry about margins if it's raining in Mexico. Remmers
is just being silly otherwise.

You are quite right.
The amount of rain in
Mexico has a signifi-
cant effect on vege-
table merchants'
profit margins.
