- froehliche weihnacht und ueberhaupt (z.b. happy hanukka)
- erinnerungen an alte ( usenet, arpanet) zeiten - "By participating on a list that was discussing the future of email addresses, I "met" Jon Postel, who was the architect and custodian of those systems until his untimely death. In trying to see how to add top-level domains to email addresses, he had proposed writing them as user.domain@com. Though a minor participant, I put forward that user@domain.com read more naturally. This came to pass without further debate, and it amuses me to think my suggestion may have inspired the "dot" that became such a part of the world's vocabulary later." - http://www.oreillynet.com…
