Hello "Gary",

PA Bear replied with the same suggestion.
See my reply to PA Bear in this thread the reason why I set to 120.
I will change back to 76. Thank You for Your kind advice.

Yes it depends on the readers settings, Your message below is about ~ 72,
my answer to PA Bear below is @ 120, and I can still read it the way I posted.
 
Have a Happy & Healthy 2005, x@y.
