I know what an AT-AT walker is ... but Jeffrey?

It's been a tough week for The Boss. He's in a part of Spain (at the behest of A Higher Power) where there's virtually no comms; no cellphone, no phone, no broadband. And he took a two-way satellite with him, and has virtually been incommunicado since. Till now: he wants to know who or where At At may be.

Apparently, it's something he found when editing Wendy Grossman's latest contribution of net.wars. Specifically, the paragraph reads:

"That's something you need to take up with your registrar," she said into the phone after phoning Michael's name through to Jeffrey @@. "Do you want me to tell you how to find out who that is?"

A quick google on "Jeffrey @@" yields nineteen and a half million hits. Clearly, Google can't cope with this character; it doesn't matter which one you visit, none contains a double-at. But Wendy, it seems, is in Las Vegas and uncontactable.

So if you know who Jeffrey @@ really is, let a poor Sniffer know? The boss sounds as if it's the last straw ...
