      I suppose that taking the piss out of his name might have been a bit off, and I apologise to anyone who was offended. It was intended to be part of the same joke where I claimed he was talking in Eskimo and deliberately rendered all the non-ASCII characters as question marks like they appeared in his email.

      And I don't particularly expect anyone to listen when I'm venting my
