:::sigh, again:::

Yes, dear, I get it as I stated so.  But did =you= know that Courier
=is= a non-proportional font?

I don't know how ISPs work, but not all fonts are non-proportional.
Perchance you can fill me in, eh?  If you change =your= font= to
oh, let's say ARIAL, do you get the same results?  Tell me, please.

I'm always willing to learn something new, usually from an
intelligent mature person, but you'll have to do.  I have nothing to be
embarrassed about and I am not going to argue with you about it.
