It just occurred to me that to this day when I tell someone of virtually any reasonable age my email address; verbally not written, no one has ever asked how to spell it much less what it is.
Somewhat like the undead, @compuserve.com lives!

Litmus test:

"Hit the carriage return."

Too young: "What's that?"

Too old: "It'll be hard to miss the phaeton parked in there."

Somewhat like the undead, @compuserve.com lives!I really was sorry to give up my compuserve account. But then again I was getting tired of getting all the info about the drug purchases by a woman in Alabama who believed that jgr@compuserve.com was her address!
