Has anyone got an alternative email address for James Lileks’ website? I’ve got some links he might be interested in, but when I try sending them to the address on his website, my message bounces.

You didn’t mention which e-mail you used, but try lileks at mac dot com.

That said, occasionally he just doesn’t check his e-mail and he gets a LOT of it. That’s probably why yours bounced.

I’ve been trying to email him for a couple of weeks about his Johnny Horton bleat with no luck. I’ve about given up.

You too, eh? You’d figure someone as net-savvy as he is would know how to use Google, y’know?

A Google News search turned up this address on a number of his recent columns: james.lileks -at- [newhouse.com](http://newhouse.com)

Of course, if it forwards to his regular address, you’re SOL. 😃

I tried the -at-mac-dot-com one; maybe this one will work.

You could try [fence@startribune.com](mailto:fence@startribune.com) - he must check that one regularly.

Any luck with the alternatives?
