I would suggest around 64. A lot of us set our newsreader/web
browsers to a font size that accomodates this without engendering the
need to scroll to the right to get the tail end of the line; having
to scroll thus is *very* irritating.

The great orthographical contest has long subsisted between
etymology and pronunciation. It has been demanded, on one hand, that
men should write as they speak; but, as it has been shown that this
conformity never was attained in any language, and that it is not
more easy to persuade men to agree exactly in speaking than in
writing, it may be asked, with equal propriety, why men do not
rather speak as they write.
-- Samuel Johnson, "The Plan of an English Dictionary" (1747).
