I'm fine with the orange E but on some list somebody griped about his 
girlfriend not realizing what that big E stood for. So I thought... until M$ 
attempts to substiture the @ in email adrresses with some 'innovative' new 
symbol (say & ;-) all emails in the world have that. As far as acqua is 
concerned I just say phong's tutorials only show how to do a 'plastic letter' 
;-) Ok, let's make it orange (to keep with the tradition ;-)

Seriously, E stands for email and in Italy people are finally starting to say 
email instead of 'posta elettronica' but then... what's more inequivocable 
than an '@' ?

Just my 2c...
