microsoft word experience?

[roberb7]

I used to be able to raw-code in HTML faster than someone could compose something on a word processor.

Me too.

This reminds of an unfortunate experience I had in the aftermath of the dot com bust. I had the bad fortune to work with one of those people who claimed to be an internet expert, when in reality, the extent of his knowledge was how to switch on his Mac, and create PDF's. He didn't have a web site for his own business.

One one occasion, he said he was going to send me an HTML file. What he actually did was, save a Word document as HTML. You probably know that when someone does this, the file contains a huge amount of crap. It would have been less work for him to send me a plain text file, and I could have added the formatting.

I'm pleased to report that I eventually got even with this clown.
