I know, Roger, I know. Didn't take any offense, really.
It's just that the so-called tags are sometimes used to emphasize the tagged
part, not to be interprete as such by the browser or whatever. It could have
been a line of hyphens or anything else.
But OK, I'll do my best to avoid it.

Cool. No offense taken here either! : )

Well now that you mention it, it *does* help to enclose URLs in < and >
brackets, because a lot of news readers automatically ignore or strip
line endings from between < and > characters, so that clicking such a
URL points your web browser to the complete URL. So I always make it a
practice to enclose URLs I post with < and > characters.
