Poll: Why don't you have your email in your HN profile?

What I would actually want is to be able to put something like

  ruby -r base64 -e 'puts Base64.decode64("emhhbGJyZWNodEBnbWFpbC5jb20=")'

into the email field. Doesn't take probably for length or validation reasons :) Anyone who can't figure that out, I don't think I want emailing me through HN.

If I may speak for him, ezl does this on his profile:

  you can email me @: "@".join(['quotesentinel.com', my_hn_username,][::-1])

The email field isn't public anyways.

Ah, I should've been clearer: I meant putting your email in the "about" field for others to see.
