E-Mail Addresses

[Richard Josslin <TaoOfDow@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Many colleges and businesses tend to strip the last name down to 6
characters and add the first and last  initial to either the beginning
or
end to make up an e-mail address.

For example, Mary L. Ferguson,  mlfergus or fergusml.

They are just now beginning to realize the problems that may happen when
you
have a large and diverse pool of people from which to choose.   Add to
that
a large database of company/college acronyms and you  have some very
funny
addresses.  Probably not funny to the individual involved, however:
