Sounds like a Prozac day! Calm down... I'm not trying to argue with your
wisdom, just stating my point of view...

I've known MANY designers and the only thing I can say about the way they
do things is... they're all DIFFERENT! Some of the best designers I've
known also create the WORST files. Likewise some shitty designers create
files that Adobe themselves would be proud of.
As for the semantics of this argument, I'll let it rest. If you have any
more comments, or if you'd like to continue debating the finer points of
PageMaker file creation, please email me directly at
JasonDS@extremezone.com. Otherwise, sit back, relax, be glad you're not a
White House intern, and enjoy the weekend! ;-)
And by the way, thank you for your keen insight into so many of the
problems discussed on this list. You've certainly taught me a thing or
two. (Gratuitously stoking your "I sure as hell have an oversized ego! :)"
