Oh! I'm sorry about that. I know that you would call it going to
the bathroom or the john, but it didn't occur to me that you might
misinterpret it thus. I meant of course that keeping up with jboske
is sometimes so demanding that doing it requires not taking a break
to take a micturition. To castigate you for (apparently) inattentively
not responding to that summary document on ro is as unreasonable as
would be castigating you for leaving jboske for a moment to visit
the carsey.
