I get your point sf. We only see things from our own perspective. Nearly everything that I read no matter who posts it or with what system or program they use...is readable, albeit some are better than others.
I have a wide-screen which accommodates very well and I don't get all shook up if things don't conform. Ranting and screaming that someone is a dummy or retarded, or slow or whatever might make one feel superior but does not solve anything. We all eat and most cook and that should be paramount in most postings...and a bit of fun and games as well.
