Contact John

Hullo, this link once opened a message, in your preferred email program, that was addressed to me. Sorry, that system makes me open to the trawling software that collects addresses for spam distributors.

Email is still the best way to contact me. I no longer have a phone and I do not have a permanent snail-mail address. If I give you a few clues I am sure you can figure out my email address. I would love to hear from you.

My full name is John Shield.

My website and email come through a server owned by Optusnet.

To create my email address put my name, without capitals or spaces followed by the @ symbol, followed by the server name, followed by 'com', followed by the abbreviation for Australia, which is the first two letters of the country name. All of that is connected by dots in the usual places. So it will end up looking something like this:

myname@servername.com.au

I trust you can figure that out. Hopefully the trawlers can't.

And please, if your name is not known to me, choose a subject that does not sound like junk mail or a virus. Anything vaguely resembling these is deleted without opening.

I look forward to hearing from you.
