You are truly screwed, mister. You should disappear immediately and do not use credit cards or cell phones. They have satellites that can track you if you do. You might want to steal someones SSN and start a new life in southern Idaho... Staging your own death is a viable option at this point. Good luck, man.

Naturally the smartest thing to do here is start a public thread on it rather than ask me directly.

I've taken the liberty of removing the URL you posted so it doesn't get picked up by search engines.

Sorry for the inadvertant email -- I was testing a piece of code and it was a bit more subtle than I had given it credit for and it emailed the first 100 megarad users with a spurious activation code. I've been meaning to collate all the bounce messages, find out which of you still used those ancient email addresses, and email you all privately letting you know the above. I guess I'd better do that now.

In summation: disregard. In the medium future I hope to have something better to show you.

Christ, I had to edit both posts to take out the email address, too. That's how spam happens. Please don't post that (or any other, really) email address in plaintext anywhere.
