Hi Ed!
Don't quite know what you're talking about. What is it that appears in
your emails?
meanwhile here's one from me. A puzzler alright, one that drove me up
the wall over the weekend.
Having had my new laptop for a few days only, I was using Note Pad since
I hadn't installed Office yet.
Repeatedly, the text was displayed backwards. That's to say, while the
lines stayed in order, the text in each line ran from right to left. So
I had to press ctrl-cursor-left from the end of the line, in order to
move forwards through the words.
Unless this has anything to do with the fact that the machine was built
in Japan, I am utterly clueless as to what causes this phenomenon.
Guesses welcome.

Hi folks,
 
It doesn't appear in all other emails.   it isn't visually on the
screen, well not unless you have to be a psychic and Brigid isn't!  and
it doesn't seem to be there if you read word by word.   
 
Puzzleder and puzzedler
