Hey Nicholas!

 NB> Vim will wrap where you want it to, as well as include the quote
 NB> character at the beginning of each wrapped line.

'fold -s -w 67' will wrap with the space at the end of the line, except the
last line as shown above.  I tacked in the qoute prefix at the start of the
lines using sed.  I've been doing it the way since forever and old habits die
hard.  The only issue I had was when I first started using utf-8 characters
but that was resolved long before utf-8 became the default for me and mine.

 NB> Hopefully there's plenty of good years left to keep those numbers up.

Agreed.  As long as I can still care for myself I have no plans to give up the
good fight.

For the record;
