[Sussex] Do we confuse you?

[paul at paulgraydon.co.uk]

But again, to be fair, the computing world does have a stupid tendancy
to invent new words to describe stuff.  Why phishing?  What purpose was
their for coming up with a new name?  What was wrong with calling it a
scam e-mail?  I bet if they were referred to as that a lot more people
would understand what you're talking about.
