Wow, I haven’t visited in a long time, but things are looking really great here! Very nice new look. One question though: Instead of writing out your email address in a way that no one can read it (and I understand its for spam purposes), why not just put a javascript to print the mailto link? Its hard to explain it on here, but if we’re ever online at the same time, I can show you what I did.

Hey Yaakov, you didn’t tell me you have a blog. Sorry I didn’t get back to you on Motzoei Shabbos. I have a final due tomorrow so I don’t think we can learn tonight.
All the best,
Moyshe from Boston

The spammer’s email crawlers are smarter than you think.

I don’t know. The one I have is actually pretty complex. It never actually has your address in the source code.

Spammers have been known to get around javascripts which is why I did not do it. Another reason, is that some browsers such as lynx and browsers on mobile devices don’t necessarily have javascript support.
