Old school cool

There's Gmail (the best) and there's every other free email service (the rest). Yet some of my favorite people — my brother Justin, an old improv pal, a lawyer buddy, Will Shortz — remain loyal to their old AOL email addresses.

Is it satisfaction with something good enough, old habits dying hard, or retro hip?
