Ross,
 
  Methinks the document that Olivier hath called upon REPLY to unfold unto our
bewildered  eyes was  but an  instance  of a  most common  slip indeed,  whose
multitudineous victims have wreaked havoc upon the MAILBOOK list in past days,
thereby summoning  shame and disgrace  upon him  who had conjured  the initial
message  unto the  list, and  leading the  contributors thereto  associated to
indulge into a reflection on the use  and abuse of the REPLY spell, henceforth
abiding  by  the reknowned  resolution:  "Withersoever  thy fingers  might  be
tempted to travel, thou shalt not call upon the REPLY spell in those instances
where REPLY  FROM could have done  thy bidding whilst better  serving thee and
thy peers".
 
:-)
