Imagine a text whose readers are permitted to rewrite it. Not merely to comment on it from a safe distance, the way one mutters at a lecturer — to rewrite it, so that the next reader receives their words where yours had stood. What would such a text be? Who would be its author? — You are reading one. The question is not hypothetical, and you are not only its reader.

No one has responded. The remark stands unanswered — for now.
