The "title issue" is only one of the many pitfalls of email. For this
reason I have learned to only call people either by their complete names
with no titles, or by their adresses. Let's not even get into the even

>> Do you mean "Dromaeosaurs"?<<
What? you've never heard of a stromaeosaur? You know, like a
dromaeosaur, but one key to the right? :)
