Yes. :) Sarcasm somethings doesn''t come across well over email > I suppose.Not only that, he did it in <html> so it was impossible for me to see whether it was top or bottom. The sarcasm was clear enough, tho ;) +1 from me, too. I''m adding a request: cut out the paragraphs of the email that you are not responding to. I''m encountering plenty of emails that don''t fit on my screen (which is much bigger than an iPhone) and turn out to contain not much more than "yes", "thanks" or "see lighthouse <url>".
