He's being witty. Take hare_krsna_hare_krsna_krsna_krsna_hare_hare_hare_rama_hare_rama_rama_rama_hare_h...@lavabit.com, hard to read and type right? Now zip it. Try read the zipped version. Now uuencode the zipped version and try read that. The joke is that the uuencoded zipped version is still easier to read than the original. Which is true enough, as the original address is just bat shit insane crazy long. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
