It's probably worth clarifying, for those who are confused, that I quoted the 
movie "Princess Bride" in an off-list email to Ankit.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093779/ <-- for those who have not seen it.

I in no way intended to imply that Ankit was either a princess, a bride, or a 
birdie, and I apologize for any confusion this caused.

For whatever it's worth, I do agree that using colloquial language, slang, 
quotes, and other similar turns of phrase can indeed be confusing in a 
cross-country, cross-culture mailing list, and we could all stand to be more 
careful about that.
