I don't know why, but the abbreviation "email" instead of "e-mail" bugs
me, though I know that both are common.
When I see the two parts merged together without the hyphen, my brain
pronounces the word with a short E. In other words, email and emperor
start with the same sound. I think I also put the emphasis on the second
syllable, which makes it sound even more ridiculous. Capitalizing the E
helps me a little if the word doesn't fall at the beginning of a
sentence.
So am I totally insane? 8-) (Wait, don't answer that!)
