It is over. You may all come home. Mr. Lyttle, on behalf of the

High Council, has accepted my sentence-the thirty-two letter sentence which I proffered three hours prior to deadline. The coun cil members assembled to read it, assembled in one great bug-eyed clump to read it aloud-over and over—then proceeded to exam ine it most carefully, counting each letter, identifying and pro nouncing each grapheme in proper alphabetical sequence, and finally proclaiming the sentence an undeniable miracle.

It is not a miracle. It is an accident. Pure happenstance. Perhaps just as happenstantial in its creation as was the fox/dog sentence. I have strong reason to believe this.

Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.

Please note that this sentence is exactly 32 letters in length. It contains the requisite appearances of each of the 26 letters of the English alphabet. The sentence contains, further, no contractions or arguable proper names. It is, incidentally, neither declarative nor interrogative, but, in fact, is in the imperative mood. It is a com mand, Mr. Lyttle. An appropriate response to fifteen weeks of High Council orders, mandates, and edictal behests.

It then became obvious. In an eye bat. All this time-in my brain--never having seen her name written out, I was misspelling it. You see, Xenia's name began not with an X, but with the other letter-the one that brought in this whole reprehensible era! Her was, obviously, the legal spelling. Hence, my culpability. This woman isn't a stranger to me, Tassie. I am no stranger to her. There is twenty-year amity between us. This is why I am so sure that she wasn't the one to report the violation.

As we will sorely miss the loss of "D" effective as of midnight tonight. (Have you not noticed the product of my decision to drib ble this dreadful diatribe with as many uses of the doomed fourth letter as possible?) Only idiots, dear Cousin, or certifiable madmen would assign divine purpose to ridding ourselves of the tools not only with which to address Heaven itself (Henceforth "Deity" and "Divinity" and even the word "God" will be outlawed. The Coun cil makes the following substitutional suggestions: “Omnigreat ness” and “Screnity.”) but also of the ability as of midnight to discuss with anything but great difficulty everything that has occurred in the sanctified past. In taking "ed" away (Goodbye, Ed!), the most useful tool to express the past tense in the English language, we are being robbed of great chunks of our very history. This constitutes, in my opinion, a significant crime, an egregious sin, and one humongolacity of a daunting challenge. - relates to Exclusion and Freedom of Speech
