I'm not viewing on a narrow device, and I see the wrapped (and the whole post confined to the centre of the screen).
I certainly don't use an 80-column limit any more. I use the rule:
A function must be completely visible in my editor on my screen. (but this is only a good rule if most people who will be reading the code will also have a similar sized viewport. After all, code is far more often read than written.)
And I balance line length with function length.

It is kind of ironic that the wide code examples in the blog post are wrapped at 65 chars by the blog formatting.

Well that goes to underscore a couple of points:
1. The fixed 80 char width that was inviolable decades ago breaks today on both sides: it may be too low or too high!
2. I guess I dont know how to use blogger very well :-)
3. Are you viewing on a narrow device?
