The default style for hyperlinks includes an underline. You need to add text-decoration: none; to your style for the a element to remove this.

<tr style='margin:0;padding:0;font-family:"Helvetica Neue", "Helvetica", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif'>
	<td style='margin:0;padding:0;font-family:"Helvetica Neue", "Helvetica", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif'>
                  
		<p style='margin:0;padding:0;font-family:"Helvetica Neue", "Helvetica", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;margin-bottom:10px;font-weight:normal;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6'><a href="https://twitter.com/khuyi" style='margin:0;padding:0;font-family:"Helvetica Neue", "Helvetica", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;color:#ec4849', text-decoration:none;>@khuyi</a> "Americans seem to be obsessed with exercising, doing mental puzzles, consuming various juice and protein concoctions, sticking to strict diets, and popping vitamins and supplements, all in a valiant effort to cheat death and prolong life as long as possible.

is that the right spot for the ' ...before it was the last character? also, now there is a ; to end that part of code before .@khuyi?

Sorry, just noticed another typo. Not sure what's wrong with me today, should be a semi-colon before the text-decoration property, not a comma.
