Francisco

Francisco is the name of the very energetic hostel attendant at America del Sud El Calafate.

After offering me a key (literally) for the wireless, he told me the password.

"What are you doing there?," he asked me. "It's email," I answered.

"Email? And how can you see? I can't see any letters." (The fonts are pretty small on my laptop.) "What program is that?"

"Pine," I said. "It's called Alpine."

He paused for a moment, and reported, "You look like a hacker with that." He patted me on the shoulder and wandered off.
