Well, chuq, since you obviously can't read (the evidence is in
Anupam's original posting, where he specifically asks people to
email him the answers to his questions and not to post) it seems
only fitting that you would have installed your mail-rejector
to prevent you from being asked to read.

Way to uphold the cause of illiteracy in America, chuq.
I hope Apple knows that they allow dysfunctional people
to sully their image with moronic judgmental errors and
infantile reactions to criticism.  If not, I know where
they live, and they soon will.

But here's what you missed:

          Golly, chuqqhhhhhch, but the first thing I noticed about our
          young friend was that he had the gall, the balls, the
          unmitigated audacity to ask that replies be sent via _e-mail_!

          I mean, the utter nerve of this little non.net.egotist, to
          presume to deny you and me our Ken-Thompson-given RIGHT to
          post answers to the simplest questions which thus prove that
          we are scholars as well as verbal sluices.
