I emailed you but your email address is forged - you're masquerading as
someone from foo.com. If that's deliberate, it's possibly fraudulent; if
it's "accidental", it says much about your competence.

As that means of contacting you isn't available, I have posted the contents
of the email below.

Just as an additional comment on the sig thing, as an SEO professional, I
was a significant contributor to the a.i.s-e group until around a year ago.
One of the key reasons for my stopping posting was that I resented my freely
given advice appearing on commercial web sites in their "forums".

I appreciate that it's a bit of a quirky idea but, as you're discussing the
contents of your sig, I thought it worth mentioning.

And now back to lurking.
