Dear David

Perhaps when things are calmer, you could publsih a selectin of

spicy secrets sent  accidentally ;  You could erase thenames and

we could try to guess who is who.


Wasn't there a case recently in an academic English site where two married 
people,

but not to each other, explored a lengthly  erotic correspondence over the 
list where all

the naughty bits were couched in linguistic idiom like labial and fricative?
