Hi Julian,

Thank you very much for your kind email.

Please be assured that I have been working very hard lately, and that,
for a chance to relax for a moment, I decided to help our Debian
banking friend, Mr Harvesy, with his project, by giving him the
opportunity to provide us some more details about his urgent,
confidential Debian matter.

Perhaps he may even reply!

As an aside, if you ever have a moment of free time, and would like
something charming to read, you might see if you can find the thread
pertaining to "fish hooks".  I tried to search it now at
http://lists.debian.org/search.html
but, alas, I can't find it.

( *****   Hint to the mailing list search and debian web development
teams! *****

The Debian mailing list could definitely use a more powerful interface,
or system.  (Something for searching _all_ lists, on _all_ dates,
selecting body, header, or both, with a specific phrase ["fish hook" or
"fish hooks"].)  )

Now, everyone, for our friend Julian: Can anyone find the "fish hooks"
thread?

Now, for me:  Does anyone have a list of other humorous Debian threads?
(Perhaps I should, in my copious free time, look on debian-curiosa?? 
Really, in their copious free, which I so generously offer to tell them
how to spend, it is my wishlist item that someone put together such a
list and put it on a Debian web page.  (I, alas, am too busy to submit
that as an actual wishlist bug!))

Best wishes.  :)
