Yahoo with a Name
I still can't get into my Yahoo acount, but I'm hopeful of a quick solution now that I have, finally, after a month of correspondance, recieved an email from someone with a name, Carlo. Carlo, my savior. Or so I hope.
So far, all I have is the letter, which you can read by clicking the MORE link. I don't know if this guy is going to be able to help me. I can only pray that he has a fucking heart.
Meanwhile, on another front, I've got a friend of a friend who knows a guy who works in Yahoo Engineering who says that he can reset my password. He was very confident when I wrote yesterday morning, but I haven't anything from his or my friend or his friend since then.
I'm the meantime, I'm losing my patience and want to go to Santa Clara and knock some sense into those heartless bastards at Yahoo.
