Many colleges and business's 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 to choose from. 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....
