Drat. Just moments ago I gave myself a non-telephone-number
DoCoMo e-mail address, "Eurotechnology@docomo.ne.jp"
(ha ha just kidding -- actually michael_turner@docomo.ne.jp),
when I could have chosen
$to =~ tr/-a-zA-Z0-9_+%$.,:!@=()[]//cd;@docomo.ne.jp
There are, after all, lots of Michael Turners, even several in Tokyo
that I know of....another self-branding opportunity missed. :-(
