Moose Tacos

From Colbert excerpted from the Fact Checker,

I will give the last word to failed Democratic presidential candidate and fake news commentator Stephen Colbert who described the superhighway as a scheme "to make Canada, the U.S. and Mexico one country and force us to eat moose tacos." After investigating the matter, Colbert concluded that it must be true "because I got it from the Internet."

pobox.com move...

Time for an inane question:

I'm getting a little sick of paying pobox.com $20 every year, but so many people have that address. I just renewed for another year and my New Year's resolution is going to be to move all humans to my gmail address. While it will be a pain to change all my accounts to gmail, I can do that. I just don't know the best way to get people to change.

Any thoughts on the best way to do this that would be the least annoying? At least with my contacts, mass emails don't seem to work as some people are still calling a phone number I haven't had for 5 years. My "reply-to" has been gmail for a long time, to little avail.

I was thinking of setting up an autoresponder that will send a form message to anyone that sends to pobox telling them that in the future they should send it to gmail. But that's pretty annoying. Then again, I really don't have that many friends. I could even do it by hand each time a pobox email arrives.
