Candide,
I've thought it before--
Good Lord, you're sarcastic! :^) You can't just be that
ticked off just because of Joe, it's gotta be something else.
So I thought you might be from a naturally sarcastic region, like
NY or the vicinity. So I bothered to look at your address, and
voila, soho.ios.com! Could be wrong (I'm in DC, and my email
address is on gramercy.ios, so you could be somewhere else) but
I doubt it. Maybe NY itself.
Bryan
