Ken Alexander, mistaken for Robert McElwaine, wants to know whether to

> C.  Flame him to glowing embers.
> D.  Ignore him.

He's an Eck-head; (A) would be impossible. (E) is the most satisfying, and
in fact you could make a hobby of it.  If McElwaine complains, tell him that he
used to be the true McElwaine, but that you are now. 

On balance, I say flame 'im, and end with ``UN-altered REPRODUCTION and
DISSEMINATION of this IMPORTANT Information is ENCOURAGED.''
