Questions for the Author

Unbeknownst to me, some software interfaces were combining to flag every question posed through the Ask the Author section of the website as spam, but spam of a sort that never even got to the spam section of email. Apparently, they went to spam limbo or the equivalent.

We THINK we’ve got the problem solved. At least test questions are now getting to me.
