Afterwards, on the same day, I went to my office. Before beginning work, I logged onto the student cluster to check my e-mail. I used the "finger command" to see who was currently logged on. Laura was one such user. Although I did not know her, I had an "urge" to send her e-mail. We began writing back and forth as complete strangers.

The following Monday, I looked up Jennifer's e-mail address and sent her a short e-mail. I did not sign my name. It consisted only of a tic-tac-toe board with the message, "Hi. It's me!" Throughout the week, I "fingered" her account and based on this information, she was not checking her e-mail.
