Hi Ken,
Everything that goes out on the Tesla list is in plain text ASCII format.
However, most mail programs today send out mail with various HTML 
features or fancy text/symbols added.  These posts are "converted" 
into plain text.  Web links are usually converted in the safest way 
possible which means they get translated to pure ASCII twice so the 
original link is never lost.  I assume we have all figured out how to 
work those double links now ;-)
If I see it, or remember to check, I can manually convert the link so 
it looks good.  But I often miss it.  If you can send the posts into 
the list in pure ASCII plain text format, the post that goes out 
should be exactly like you sent it.
Cheers,
        Terry

Terry-
How is it that a doubled link occasionally appears in a 
posting?  Witness my latest of today.  Should I/we be doing 
something different?
