   Hi, Denis!  Recently you wrote in netmail to Ardith Hinton:   
      
   DM>    HI, Wit's End!   
      
   DM>    Ah... that may explain why messages from You which don't strike   
   DM> me as particularly confidential end up in my netmail area.   
      
   DM>    The example I've just replied to seemed to indicate that the   
   DM> message You was replying to had been forwarded from E_T, presumably   
   DM> by You himself. My software allows me to specify move, copy or   
   DM> forward & indicates upon arrival who told it to do that.  On the   
   DM> downside my software can't decipher the France alphabet. We all do   
   DM> the best we can with what we have, and although I am not a techie I   
   DM> count myself fortunate that my computer guru is in the same room.   
      
   DM>    I've tried many times to explain to You & others that I can sent   
   DM> netmail only to points in Z1, but folks from Z1 don't appear to   
   DM> understand why :Q   
      
      
   DM> Denis   
      
      
               This reply doesn't indicate it was forwarded... but it looks as if   
   you cut & pasted a message to Alexander, then did a bit of rewording.  You may   
   have guessed, quite correctly, that a pair of old schoolteachers wouldn't take   
   long to figure out what you'd done!  I gather messages from E_T are showing up   
   in your netmail.  Years ago, when you were communicating via 2:5030/2404 *and*   
   using a different message editor, you replied to me & to various others in the   
   echo with our own words identified quite clearly & appropriately.  I'd like to   
   be able to help you do it again.  Since there's more than one variable in this   
   case, however, I can't be sure from the other side of the Arctic Ocean what is   
   going on.  Maybe your "boss node", Vitaliy Geydeko at 2:5064/54, could help.   
      
      
               When the name of Vitaliy's system appeared in the nodelist, BTW, I   
   understood why you were curious about Wits' End.  The word "wit" is defined as   
   intelligence & quick understanding, especially when used in the plural, but is   
   probably most often associated with remarks which other people find amusing or   
   entertaining.  A person at his/her "wits' end", AKA "wit's end", is in a state   
   of confusion because they've reached the limits of their brain power....  :-))
