    Oh dear, you're going to confuse a lot of people now!  Internet
addresses can end in .edu, .net, .com, .edu, .gov, .org or one of many
country codes.  They are mutually exclusive.  "dpfarrer@cap.gwu.edu" is
legal, while "dpfarrer@cap.gwu.edu.us" is not.  Just check my university
address down below.  It isn't "90taobri@wave.scar.utoronto.edu.ca".
