further random questions from the newly-unemployed

   Those of us who are old enough to remember terms like Fido and
   UltraBoard may also remember how to create art from text. My
   personal opinion is that a well-formatted, well-written cover
   letter in text, and a targeted Word-format r)B?sum? will likely get
   the most attention.

A lot of companies feed resumes through a search engine to do
matching.  That's a lot easier to do with text than with Word.
