As a test, I downloaded the file (now grown to a whopping 11K) and
double-clicked it. To my suprise it opened in Acrobat with the original
text formatting intact (font, etc). I'm sure plain HTML is better for

experiences are welcome; I want this to be readable by pretty much
anyone (Mac, Linux, Windows, text-based browser,etc).
