Be careful not to out right attack people, there are better ways to 
express your discomfort that doesn't alienate people. 

It's easy to be inflammatory since it's email, but think about the 
idea that there is a real human being on the other end of your 
keyboard and show a little compassion for people with different 
brains. 

What is the programmers term: accept incorrectly formatted data but 
always try to output correctly formatted data.
