In article <2u72sn$d2l@unicorn.ccc.nottingham.ac.uk> on 21 Jun 1994 17:01:27 +0100,
Robert Huxtable (pcyjrjh@unicorn.nott.ac.uk) made the following noteworthy contribution
to the highly esteemed collected works of rec.humor:
: Is this the Captain admitting that he finds rec.humor funny? This means that he
: must find me funny or useful in a perverse kind of way. Well done Captain
: Nitpick.

I assume that you mean this for me (-- Captain Nitpick) and not Captain Nitpick,
an entirely different entity.

I find:

   a. rec.humor funny; and
   b. rec.humor.funny.

This has no bearing on whether I find rec.humor.funny funny.

This does not _mean_ that I find the EXPLAINOR funny.  (But I do, though.)

Isn't that funny?

-- Captain Nitpick
