Removed e-mail addresses from visibility in comment postings

Based on the "miss Juliet" spam from over the weekend, I've banished your e-mail addresses from the publicly-visible comments on edbrill.com.  Even though they were obfuscated by the Dominoblog template (by using a bit of javascript code), somehow some spammer decided to view source and manually harvest these addresses.

You will still need a valid e-mail address and to use your full name to make a comment posting on edbrill.com.  This policy has, in my opinion, kept the overall tone of discourse here more professional and open.
