ah, my user name at work (on the Windows side) is 272_ali. All of us
have these strange little phone extension numbers in the front. Makes
it really hard to pick the meaningful part (and even worse if the guy
doesn't have an extension number, or they move around). I really hate
the scheme, but it was picked by my (former) manager one month before
I began working in the company.
