Blank object text (was BLANK Subject Lines....)

Hi Henrik,

I'd love to see your system after you ran that program <VBG>!! Some of those
otherwise respectable people must work for IBM...

BTW, is that DLTOBJ command just shorthand, or did you come up with one of
your own? I've never understood why OS/400 doesn't have one.
