Hmmm...I have little sympathy there. A simple cut-n-paste or even actually
typing in the email address yourself does not seem like that high of
a hurdle.

Fair enough! This is what I came up with:

and also:

FWIW, [mostly for the Steves], I am well aware of how spambots work and the
relative effectiveness of hiding email addresses.
