- rini, this thing looks a bit bogus to me. The language, specifically
- the usage of words, appears anachronistic. The instructions are just
- a tad too pat, almost a lampoon of the alleged mores of that time.
- Do you happen to have the original of this, so that you can verify the
- date of publication? If not, I'd suspect that this is a fabrication,
- perhaps with humorous intent.
