There is an old Vulcan saying: "Only Nixon could go to China."
WTF did I just read.
An agreement with Mouse about plain-text, by sarcastically
objecting to use of plain text in the RFC, segueing into an
off-the-wall rant objecting to planned obsolescence.

I intended it to be absurd enough to provide some humor.
It apparently failed at that.
Sorry.
