I already do that. You have gone off half-cocked here. Mr. Kluge has not
posted anything reporting himself to be offended. Why you are behaving as
though he has is unfathomable to me. Rest assured that if Mr. Kluge was
offended and informs me (privately or on the list), then I will make a note
of this and not use such a joke in future.
