Re: Cutting and Pasting from Word?!

== Has anyone ever heard from any Microsoft employee / defender / apologist on 
any public listserv (or other venue) speak up about the how and why their 
rendition of HTML-izing has to be quite so bad as it is???

I mean, we know why, I suppose: round-tripping to MS-Word being the central 
raison d'etre for working with HTML, according to Redmond, but still...

== Are the new "File | Save As..." options in Office 11/2003 making any of 
this appreciably better?
