To send me e-mail, use this address:

Webmaster@Megalomania-Intergalactic.com-invalid

Please copy that address into your e-mail program, but without -invalid.

Why isn't the contact process automatic?

Why can't you just click on the address and see a pre-addressed note appear in your email program?

In a word, spam.

1. The mailto: element, a simple way to send e-mail from a Web site, is also notorious as a way for spammers to collect e-mail addresses. Programs scour Web sites, looking for the mailto: element or the "@" sign in an e-mail address.
2. Various schemes that have been invented to disguise e-mail addresses (encryption, translation, etc.) are rapidly defeated by the programs used to harvest addresses.
3. There are other ways to send e-mail from a Web site.
   • Some methods require various combinations of software products installed on my Web host's servers. However, I have little or no control over what additional software gets installed there.
   • These methods also require extra programming effort on this site. Even if the required software were available at my host, I can't justify the time and effort required to write the additional code.

For these reasons, you must spend some extra time and effort if you wish to send me e-mail. For making that necessary, I apologize.

So, please follow the directions above to send me e-mail. Thanks!
