[Asterisk-Users] Gen. Question

[Dovid Bender]

To reply to your rant the reason why I got this
account is because I am out of the US (in the us for
lists i used asterisk AT Dovid DOT net for the biz
list asteriskusers AT dovid DOT net for users list
etc). Here where I am I only have access to yahoo. I
needed a name that I could remember and would not
forget (I tend to forget the names to accounts that I
create). So I figured I would make it asteriskdigium
so I would not forget it. Anyone on this list would
know that I do not work for asterisk or digium. In
fact I tried to get just asterisk at yahoo.com but it was
already taken.
