I returned to teaching in the mid 80s and assigned students to find a
pen pal in a foreign country -- using usenet news. One of the students
-- who was from Costa Rica -- met a guy from the Netherlands. About
five years later they invited me to their wedding and they are now Web
developers in San Francisco.
