You can tell how old I am, from my AOL email addresses.  (It's the equivalent of women who are named Priscilla or Mildred.)  But AOL was around before Gmail, and I learned on it, and I don't like how Gmail works, especially now that I have been forced into two-step verification.  I was just remembering this morning how my daughter was always comforted by the presence of her blanket until she was two years old -- I don't feel the same about the presence of my phone, and I often leave it several rooms away from my computer.

There is another guy here in Arizona whose name is similar to mine, but with an extra letter at the end.  I often get his gmail.  Every couple months I notice, and forward them to him.
