Ah but that's a presentational issue in itself. I resist the HTML-isation
of email by using a text only mailer, so no email-borne virii here thanks,
so any attempt to rely on the implicit emphasis of how *your* emailer
presents the element. So I for one can't tell how loudly you're laughing.

By the way, a specific emphasis element would therefore have been more
appropriate both as markup and for the content you wanted to provide. One
of the best books on writing is "Bugs in Writing" by Lyn Dupré and there
is still virtue in "Designing and Writing Online Documentation" by William
Horton.
