No kidding. You would not believe (well, you, Brandom sure would) how many people with names similar to mine believe that my address john.lev...@gmail.com is their address. I get all sorts of rather personal stuff, offers of work for a psychiatrist in Boston, wedding invitations and tax documents for a druggist in Paris, car repair appointments for a guy in Phoenix. The worst of it is that when I tell people that I am not the person they are looking for, half the time they do not believe me and insist that I must be that guy, because if I'm not, why did I give them that address. In none of the cases have I been able to figure out what the other people's actual addresses are, probably my name with a number, but there are a lot of numbers. At some point I give up and hit the spam button.
