So, how exactly does it work?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Well, Google makes the fair assumption that the last thing any besotted sender would want to do while attempting to e-profess their latent and late-night love is answer a few mildly difficult math questions. So, Mail Goggles (when activated) offers up this handy-dandy &amp;quot;Are You &lt;i&gt;Sure&lt;/i&gt; You Want To Send This Email?&amp;quot; Pop Quiz!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/2008/10/01-07/mail_goggles.png"&gt;&lt;img src="http://nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/2008/10/01-07/mail_goggles.png" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Now, while it&amp;#39;s a noble effort, we can&amp;#39;t help but point out that these arithmetically-oriented confirmation questions are not taking into account such mathematical savants as ourselves. (True story!)
