Don't destroy 4 years worth of tradition. If you type something without italics once, then you will ruin your record and you will never be able to get it back. I wish I had a tradition like that. The only tradition I have is since I got 500 posts I got a custom avatar and never changed it.

"The first man who, having fenced off a plot of land, thought of saying, 'This is mine' and found people simple enough to believe him was the real founder of civil society. How many crimes, wars, murders, how many miseries and horrors might the human race had been spared by the one who, upon pulling up the stakes or filling in the ditch, had shouted to his fellow men: 'Beware of listening to this imposter; you are lost if you forget the fruits of the earth belong to all and that the earth belongs to no one." - Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Italics are meant for emphasis. They are difficult to read. IT'S AS ANNOYING AS TYPING IN ALL CAPS.
One is much, much easier to read. I have no problem reading italics. I don't know what is wrong with your eyes.

as for sb keeping his italics, I really don't mind... as long as he doesn't add a "have a nice day" at the end of his posts, I'm fine...I watched you fall. I think I pushed.
