   Hi, Ardith!  Recently you wrote in a message to Anton Shepelev:   
      
   AH>  I'm not at all concerned about lines which are shorter than   
   AH>  what you intended because I think that makes them easier for    
   AH>  less fluent speakers of English to interpret.    
      
   AH>  BTW... certain Fidonetters who are blind or visually impaired    
   AH>  tend to use software which limits them to 40 lines.    
      
      
             What I meant was "40 characters per line", which I could easily have   
   abbreviated.  OTOH I reckon Anton is smart enough to figure it out... [blush].
