Subject: question

I hate to nitpick -- Well, not really, I love to nitpick... I am a programmer after all, and nitpicking is part of the game -- but shouldn't that be something more like @wpi.k12.ma.us? I wouldn't ask but for two reasons. (A) The stories specifically note that there is still a United States of America* and (B) I creating a dot-k12 would help the ever-growing Internet -- specifically since dot-us and dot-enter-your-state-here extensions would allow for much more schools than just dot-k12. Anyway, not trying to detract from the otherwise great* stories, I just wanted ask*.

(*Note: I forgot about the Canadian excursion in SOS1 whilst reading SOS3 and waited until one of the Intermezzo pieces to realize there were still nations.)
(*Note: Great as in "Dude, this is almost like the Core stories all over again! I' forgotten how much I ewnjoyed WPI as reflected through (alumni) Wedge rat eyes.)
(*Note: I also just like to nitpick computer stuff in fiction; it's one reason I like Neal Stephenson so much... He gets it right, as opposed to many others.)

Possibly. Actually, being that WPI is a private institution, I suspect it ought to have been something more esoteric, like "worcesterprep.org", but I didn't feel like doing that, so I made up the k12 TLD to be akin to .edu. Plus, the way .us is administered irritated the heck out of me back when I was a hostmaster.
