You are preaching to the choir, Wolfie, mon sweet. We all know it is so, and I certainly know it very, very well. I have had to suppress my inner b***h, when I am now seeing all the crying about how the new LITB is "wrecking perfectly good books" over at Amazon. My little imaginary Schnauzer,
Schadenfreudie, has been barking about those, naughty thing that she is. After all...that's now displaying what the books really look like--when the HTML isn't being suppressed by, tamped on, and conformed by, Amazon.

(Down, Schade! Down! Naughty doggie...) As, finally, how the book looks in the inside
DOES get seen.

Me,I care about the code because if the code is a real mess (I'm looking at you Phoenix Pick) then it's not as easy to make changes. Yes, I do make changes because publishers think they know how to format when really, they don't. They do the same sort of stupid shit that needs fixing all the time.

Well, we all know that you would be one seriously tough taskmaster, Wolfie. I doubt that there is
anyone alive on this forum who wouldn't know that. :-)
