Then, some time later, someone replied:

To which I say:
Pardon me, but I am of the opinion, which I shall now express in full view
of all who may be concerned about this post and its subsequent thread, that
the original message, quoted above, by Rephlex@blahblah.co.uk was, as it
says, utterly and completely pointless, and, by continuing to reply to it
and question its intended meaning, we are missing the point entirely of the
message, in that there is none. It is really quite silly, if you ask me,
that we are continuously discussing this most pointless of messages, and I
firmly believe that MrRephlexPerson must be quite literally laughing his
ass off right now because of this. Maybe that was the message's _real_
intention.
