Are my postings hard to read? Some say they are
and others have no problem with them.

Can someone please translate this? I can't figure out what it means.

Your post looks fine to me, but look at what it did to the previous
message - it inserted a blank line, which I kept in so you can see for
yourself. I usually just delete it (if the message is short enough)
and move on, but it does get tiresome after a while.

I don't know what the dynamics are. My news reader is set to wrap to
the window when it comes to the never ending lines - some do and some
don't, so it's out of my hands.

I see this a lot. It's only with Google users, but it might be the
result of google plus some kinda browser or something. I see it quite
a lot indeed.
