Yes. At least my email address.

I believe that it will solve harvesting issues. I believe that the ALE should 
meet the standards of other lists and forums by not offering email addresses 
so plainly. I believe that it is ironic a group of system admins wouldn't 
have this fully covered. I believe we all know that while it won't stop World 
spam problems or the recent spam originating from M$ machines, obfuscation 
(depending on how you do it) will stop spam software from harvesting our 
address. I believe our children are our future, teach them well, and let them 
lead the way.
