<div id="ygrps-yiv-1240599941">excuse me again<br/>
this is a test & not a jest<br/>
& there is a message embedded later<br/>
but the yahoo server may have just gone berserk again<br/>
so we interrupt this surrender just to possibly bring you that <br/>
wonderful news <br/>
& the following embedded question is for you grant anyway<br/>
<br/>
i noticed the palanca marshes embedded in your previous triumphal <br/>
opus with my initials on them in one probable version & couldnt eat <br/>
them without wondering whether they had been previously discussed <br/>
here or was that some newfound surprise morsel you have slipped us <br/>
like a magic mushroom or truffle<br/>
<br/>
& everyone do please remember to notice sequencing if the following <br/>
trip burrp already in progress gets as weird as the previous one did<br/>
<br/>

&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; What we can say, though, is that a *fully crossed* hotwater <br/>
&gt; tour <br/>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; is impossible <br/>
&gt; &gt; &gt; as well as unnecessary & irrelevant <br/>
&gt; &gt; Fair enough. I raised the topic only because I&#39;d briefly <br/>
&gt; entertained <br/>
&gt; &gt; the notion that an uncrossed tour *implied* the existence of a <br/>
&gt; &gt; crossed tour, too. You (general rather than specific &quot;you&quot;, in <br/>
this <br/>
&gt; &gt; instance) could perhaps just cross each quadripoint and find <br/>
&gt; yourself <br/>
&gt; &gt; reversing the line of march for alternating line segments - <br/>
&gt; &gt; effectively covering the same route but walking it in a different <br/>
&gt; &gt; order, and half the time in the opposite direction. But the <br/>
&gt; formation <br/>
&gt; &gt; of little closed loops precluded that.<br/>
&gt; &gt; Shame. I was quite looking forward to presenting you with a <br/>
crossed <br/>
&gt; &gt; tour.<br/>
&gt; &gt; <br/>
&gt; &gt; Grant<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; dear general grant<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; whaattt anyway<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; for even the general me is staggered lee & windward here<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; but ok i will eat this intended present shamelessly too<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; still stunned & basking in the afterglow of your great new ulyssead<br/>
&gt; for yes i really think we must rename even the odyssey itself now <br/>
too<br/>
&gt; in honor of your true sawanabori both mathematical & philological <br/>
of <br/>
&gt; the craziest checkerboard in the world to its true source ulysses <br/>
&gt; grant <br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; but sir i am prepared to make some concessions<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; first evidently boundaries do or at least can have handedness & at <br/>
&gt; their best they even have evenhandedness<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; boundaries to that extent have vectorhoods<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; i am not prepared to concede that boundaries move<br/>
&gt; nor that they would even recognize your well gesticulated tour as <br/>
&gt; motion of any sort<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; about borders<br/>
&gt; borders still cross<br/>
&gt; prima facie & unrebutted<br/>
&gt; & they change sides when they cross<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; excuse me<br/>
&gt; i am being interrupted here in canaan<br/>
&gt; later<br/>
