Contact |
Just a quick word about the contact link above, since I've received a few emails since the site re-design. Mail actually goes to yours truly, the website manager. I will of course forward anything appropriate to Astrid as soon as I am able. The reason I set it up like this is to spare Astrid the amount of spam that comes from running a website. I'm trying out a script that touts to being somewhat spam-proof but nothing ever really seems to be totally spam-proof.... |
