And I even more humbly request that it *not* be reinstated.  Rather
than reiterating the arguments, I will point to Chip Rosenthal's
"Reply-To Munging Considered Harmful" at 
http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html , which is hereby
incorporated by reference, as the lawyers say.

In the interests of fair play, I will also point to Simon Hill's
"Reply-To Munging Considered Useful" at 
http://www.metasystema.org/essays/reply-to-useful.mhtml .
