My New Spam-Fighting TechniqueInstead of calling "@" an "at" sign, I'm going to call it "strudel" like some Israeli writers do. Or you could call it sobaka, majmunsko, apestaart, Aff enschwanz, or dalphaengi like they do in many other countries. So if you need to get ahold of me, my e-mail is jake strudel utterlyboring dot com. Posted by Jake on 10/10/05 @ 09:11 AM

Barney said on 10/10/05 @ 09:37 PM: So what do the danish call it? Heh;-) Neil T. said on 10/11/05 @ 02:57 AM: Jake Strudel sounds like some kind of desert :) Paul said on 10/11/05 @ 07:36 AM: I tried to post the other day, but got a SQL socket error. "apestaart" is Dutch and means literally "monkey tail". Weird folks, the Dutch. Anyway, "dot" is "punt". Jake said on 10/11/05 @ 10:42 AM: Sorry, Paul, but we're having MySQL load issues the last couple days. We're working on it. André said on 10/12/05 @ 09:40 AM: in portuguese, it's arroba.
