While I hope you reach Nirvana with another few thousand repetitions
of your mantra, would you mind taking a few moments from your quest
for personal enlightenment and explain what you are trying to say?

Off-hand, it sounds like a non-sequitur, and I don't have the
slightest idea of what repeating it is supposed to contribute. I
suspect a hostility to Andrew Plato, but I can't even be sure of
that.

OK, you do prove that Gertrude Stein would have been a terrible
tech-writer, but I must admit that the idea never previously crossed
my mind.

There came Queen Mary's spirit and It stood behind her chair,
Singing, 'Backward and forward and sideways may you pass,
But I will stand behind you till you face the looking-glass.'"
