I saw a troubling item in this morning's NY TIMES in Peter Lewis' column.
He was providing an internet address (it was where to get Netscape
Navigator) and it was written this way:
info {at} mcom.com
I was struck. Where is the cute little _@_?
Is this simply a mistake or is the TIMES trying to create a new net
syntax and use more paper to boot---5 characters instead of 1---or an I
just behind the time?
I thought it odd, in any case.
