Good morning all, a bit chilly here to say the least, we're still in the 30's and it's just about 8:00. My thermometer says it's 38 out, but the Weather Channel insists that it's 34. The high today by anyone's guess will be in the mid-50's.
I don't know how many of you have several email accounts, most of us do. I was just looking at mine and was a bit taken back by one. I have a Yahoo account where the URL is simply "mail.yahoo.com". I also have a gmail account that I rarely use, but I noticed just now that the URL for that one is: "mail.google.com/mail/...followed by 202 characters" I'd hate to have to calculate just how many different combinations there are in 202 alpha-numeric characters, but I'm not sure a term exists for that large a number.
that comes to 38 to the 202 power, or 38 x 38, 202 times. Why in the world is that necessary? No wonder I avoid using that account.
