When I started the users didn't have a box between their tv and typewriter --
but they did have modems.  I've worked in providing international email
services since before the word email was invented, and I have watched the
changes in public perception over those years.  I don't think it's a good
idea to dummy down the user -- besides, I only want the users who want to
smarten up.  Unfortunately I'm having to put up with a lot of bozos during
my search.
