Hi Bill,

I can't think of any easy way to do it, although I can think of several hard
ways. I would have a discussion with him on the difference between printed
media and the Web, as it regards what the viewer sees. If you end up just
having to do it, here are some ideas, in order of my preference:
1. After each period, use   
2. Use the <PRE> tag.
3. Make a gif of the text.
4. Plead one more time not to do it :)

HTH,
Mark
