Yeah, but c'mon, there are other reasons to be upset.  It's tough enough
when a hard-to-understand posting appears in one NG, but posting to this

of first-contact experiment...

ObTRN: ...or maybe it was a channelling session run amok...

ObAAp,ObABiPr, ObFLR: ...or the breakdown of language might be a sign of
