Certainly not. I didn't catch those...
If everyone sticks to talking about themself they're never going to
be wrong. :) Note below, how I speak about MY opinions and
experience. I guess I could be wrong, but BOY would it be a
challenge for anyone (even me) to prove it.

I personally am split 50/50 on the issue right from the starting
gate. The way it stands, it's a pain in the butt for poems, great
for tossing an email up on my wiki. Which one I do more often was
probably directly influenced by how easy it was to toss an email up
on the list vs how hard it was to put a poem up :P I haven't written
many poems since I have been putting them online. Even with PRE tags
on static pages, it was too much of a pain. So for the last 10 years
I just haven't been writing many poems -- which is a real shame,
because I was quite prolific for 20 years.
I need to implement the magic box theory so that I can just copy /
paste them into a wiki. That might get my creative juices flowing
again.

I'm ok with that. :)
