Because, while the Internet knows who twwells.com is, uucp sites do
not yet.

Once one has registered with the Internet, one should also get ones
uucp map entry updated. I've sent in the request but the update hasn't
made it here yet. Once it has, I will update the software so that I
appear as twwells.com rather than twwells.uucp. And, of course, I'll
update my signature as well.
