Then again, it's probably due to my increased vigilance about whom I give my e-mail to; for most websites I give out an alternate address. And, checking that one, I have an exorbitant amount of spam. Makes me wonder how life would be like without all this crap clogging up the series of tubes that is our intarwebs.
