The Invocation That Went Around The World

In 1999, a Melbourne father, amused by his six-year-old son's solemn mis-rendition of the Lord's Prayer (what this child of the computer generation said was: ``Deliver us from email'' instead of ``deliver us from evil'') sent a two-line description to a friend in California - by email. A few months later, it came back to the Melburnian, after being circulated around the world - as an email. I can vouch for the accuracy of this story. You see, I was the father.
