Nancy,

Didn't that six word telegram waste four or five words? Reminds me of the telegram the young man sent to his beloved that went

I love you,
I love you,
I love you,
George

The telegraph clerk said he had a free unused word, so George changed it as follows:

I love you,
I love you,
I love you,
Regards,
George
