Oh, I just thought there was
a greater reason for your
660-character tantrum
than someone overshooting
by 14 characters on
a couple of lines.

Then again,
having read the
rest of the
pointlessly hostile mail,
it's entirely in keeping
with the rest.

Shame that your
needless aggression
obscures a
fairly valid
point.

Have
a
lovely
even
ing
