Peter:

STOP NOW.  You are violating the T*rsen word cease-fire on the mother list,
the penalty of which is $100 per sentence containing the word T*rsen
(payable directly to Dan).  In some instances, this word induces fever,
sweaty palms, high blood pressure, spittle to fly and logic to become
clouded by personal opinion.  It has also been known in isolated cases to
cause personal attacks.  Consult the 57 gigabytes of reference material in
the archives for proof.

Utterances containing this particular word may be directed to the convenient
list of the same name.  The T*rsen list is geographically isolated and
heavily armored to prevent any shrapnel from injuring the main list.

Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
