And remember, through all of this emailing-a-server-to-get-the-page-emailed-back ordeal, he doesn't use an on-line email reader either! He downloads new messages in a batch and reads them off-line. He then writes responses that get uploaded and sent off in bulk later.

At least, that was the way it worked last time I read about it.

I wonder if he's using UUCP?
