Great galloping gopher gravy!  Somehow I managed way too many n's in that
last phrase.  Must have been thinking about the mantra I chant when sending
QRSS by hand ("Onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn, Onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn").

My apologies.  It should, of course, have read:
"...and porndivig potlianicias a pacle to lnad and be seen spentpig form
mirtaily acrifart."

For the record, I did scramble the middle letters of "seen" as well, but I'm
sure a true connoisseur of Cmabrigde-spaek wulod ardelay hvae nicetod taht.
