My name isn’t exactly common. In most cases I am able to get jluster as my username. There’s one other Jonas Luster in the world, and he’s 87 and in Sweden. Yet, gmail, oh faithful mail delivery and reading tool of mine, regularly reminds me that there are some others out there who share that first letter of their first name with me.

To date I have gotten post-one-night-stand declarations of love, tax documents, confidential doctor-patient communications, the newsletter of a radical fundamentalist Baptist church (including a graphical description of what Satan will do with gays. If that’s what happens to them, I know a few people in the kink community who’ll opt for hell in a heartbeat), and many, many, opted-in newsletters. All sent to a jluster at gmail.

Aside from the clear case for confirmed opt-in, it makes me wonder – considering the rarity of my name, how much cool stuff does amiller@gmail get? :)
