Our old mate Omar Khayyám probably put it most eloquently:

  "The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,
  Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
  Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
  Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it."

but William's the clear winner for succinctness: "Good luck with that!"

cheers, Ian
