In TELECOM Digest V10 #867, I wrote:

I'd like it noted that my original posting indeed had the asterisks
(and the smiley).  Contrary to the impression given by the Moderator's
comment, no editing of my message was required, and none was made.  I
assumed that TELECOM readers could count asterisks as needed.

Also, the "J" could stand for either "Judge" or "Judgment", depending on
the listener/reader...

[Moderator's Confession: Mr. Black is correct. No editing was required
of his earlier message, but I couldn't resist the temptation for a
little fun.  Actually, everyone knows MFJ means Modified Final Joke.  PAT]
