Rioting Spreads to Nine Suburbs
(I left the subject off the last email, which I hope is why the last posting doesn't have a heading. This email has the subject, "Rioting Spreads to Nine Suburbs"--we'll see if it comes through. I've tried once already to insert a picture into the email and have it come out in the posting. Blogger rejected that attempt. My hope is that I can make this blog less labor-intensive when I'm in Morocco next year, where connections are slow and time in Internet cafes expensive.)
The riots have now spread to nine suburbs of Paris. See CNN.com.

OK, I played a bit with it after publishing. I removed my sig tag at the end, so you yahoos won't have my professional email and phone number. I also had to manually link the URL in the posting--it published without recognizing the link. But the subject line did convert very nice into a heading, so that's a definite advantage of publishing through email.
I'm also not having the problem of junk comments after enabling the letter-recognition test!
