Re: FLASH: OT...tactful wording

[King McCarthy]

I remember this happening to me once, when desktop publishing tools first

arrived on the scene, and bosses and secretaries were spitting out

newsletters with over 30 different fonts.  They looked like ransom notes.

It's embarrassing to say the least.  In my case, once put out, the

newsletters survived until a "new and improved" alternative was produced by

someone in the company.  Perhaps....you could create an alternative that

blows them away so far, the won't be back in a......flash.
