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.
You misquote.
I did not make the comment you attribute to me.

Indeed, but it looks like Michael Hennebry misquoted. As I made that
comment:-)

Would it help if I said I *wished* I'd made the comment?

Probably. It would add to the goodwill in the group. Or I would hope it would, anyway.
