if "Driving right now" is not "I wrote that note at a gas station" then
  put "The author, or his robust ego cares very little about
  anything beyond fueling that ego with negative attention and
  wasted bandwidth on tangents that are far removed from the topic"
  closeTopic
 else
  put "This is childish nitpicking, NOT!"
  -- he uses the word 'childish' alot too, although if someone were to
  -- be seriously injured by responding to email while driving,
  -- I doubt whether that ego would be shaken in the least
end if

on closeTopic
  put "This topic is badly in need of the presence of the List Mum"
end closeTopic
