This is hard to read. What's up with your client? Was
this from an HTML interface? It looks like every %20 was
replaced with an =20.

I'm going to go with Captain Freeman, from Star Trek:
Lower Decks. She probably isn't really the best captain,
but I'm choosing her anyway because Lower Decks is
currently my favorite Trek.

To rationalize my choice, I point out that she does more
with less. She has a weaker ship which often breaks, and
her crew aren't exactly the living legends found on most
featured Trek ships, yet the day still gets saved.

Absolutely - and while the rest of us (including me) COULD do a find
and replace to clean up the crap in the message most of us would just
skip to the next message ...
