Back in 1996 I joined a company in Mountain View called Optimal Networks, Inc. which had the domain name optimal.com. We sold the company to Compuware and the domain lived on for a while. If you search jgc@optimal.com you'll find ancient messages from me still lurking on the web. I wonder if that email still receives spam?

We get all kinds of crazy optimal spam!

You should hook him up with his old work address!

I actually went on an adventure of re-registering old company addresses a few years ago.

Interesting question-> how would he prove that he once had that address? :)
