Eliminate risk.
Replace all strings of e's with another string of e's, one e longer.
Replace the intra-paragraph newlines with one e each.
Sort.
Undo the previous replacements.
If, for some reason, one does not like e, use a vertical stroke.
Hmm. Nifty.

The best answer was the one Leon Lederman (director of Fermilab) gave to Phil
Donahue when Donahue badgered him with "What does it do for the defense of
the country?" Leaving aside the absurdity of Donahue playing the hawk,
Lederman stood up on a chair and shouted him down, then replied,
"It helps make it worth defending."
