You're welcome.

I go back to the archives every day now, mostly to make sure that my  
posts don't screw up like they have in the past. If I maintain a half- 
way decent looking set of posts I might get a  bit more den-motherish  
about the whole thing. Till then I'll note that I managed to get HTML  
scramble by pasting the section title that I left in the body of the  
text* into the Apple e-mail window, then copy and paste into the title  
window and voila:

	a total textual cluster-fuck.

Anyway, I've figured out that I just  have to type the name of  
whatever I'm up to in the title window and forget about cut & paste  
for that particular window. Oy!

*Written and edited in 'Pages'---it retains tab in the Apple e-mail  
window and the posting and so far hasn't had any other weird artifacts  
as long as I press that 'make plain text' button under 'format'.
