Yes even my Google page will 'fill in' the rest of my name and/or
email address the moment I start to type it.

If I were to change my name, email or civic address I'd only have to
it once whereafter my PC would do it for me. Maybe the federal
government hasn't heard about 'smart' computers?

My (purchased) income tax programme also 'remembers me from year to
year. Up to ten years now!
