I always had thought you guys were obfuscating the email addresses using javascript or something like that. Is this something you could do to keep spammers from scraping addresses from this site?

Thanks,

Matt

I think that it's a way of encrypting our emails so that spammers have trouble trawling our addresses from public websites.

I wonder if that has something to do with the fact that I get 30 emails (or more) a day offering me cheap viagra or "male enhancement". Geez! There's only so many times you can get it enlarged!

For some reason I haven't seen a Viagara add in over a year. Could this be a function of my ISP? They don't show up in my "Junk Email" folder either.
