Thank you, Ian.
Nor do I want to "kill mime." I don't want to kill MIME. That
mischaracterizes what I said.
All I want is not to be forced to do MIME. Unfortunately, it appears
that there are a lot of people who denigrate text, and think that if
you say, "Hey, I like text!" then that means you want to kill MIME.
