People who use !leg!bl zpel!ngz and quasi-mathematical shorthand are just
SO COOL!  All those exclamation points in the middle of words... my God,
it's POETRY!  Clearly, integer@www.god-emil.dk, your ideas are so
breathtakingly original, so challenging to our world-view, that they
couldn't possibly be explained in ordinary language.  Furthermore, your
talents include mixing English, French and German words in the same
sentence; Ezra Pound couldn't hold a candle to you!  (I know just how you
feel: "amusant" looks so much better than "amusing", especially in your
brilliantly innovative spelling, "amuzant".)  Obviously anything so
difficult to understand must be the work of genius.
