I just forgot something myself. {HI-} implies a direct object of "me", right?
Well, since, I am not telling you to write _me_, but _to_ me, perhaps this
should really be {jIHvaD yIghItlhneS}, "Do me the honor of writing, for/to me".
I just didn't think of that when I originally wrote that other phrase.
