Dave, your tools are letting you down. Marc did post in text, and did 
include his code, as you can see from the multipart attachments to his 
email:

Perhaps it is time for you to give up on whatever tool you are using to 
read this mailing list, or at least to change your assumption when you 
see a contentless message from "Original poster didn't send email" to "I 
can't see the email".
