That was supposed to end:

I can't see why some of my messages get cut off at the end. In the
above case, I had written "It's easy ..." and later went back and
inserted "too" before easy. Then there were some final back-deletes.

UNIX, and those back deletes.  A good example of something not worth
understanding.
