Like all the Guides at About.com, I'm a real person.

I encourage you to write to me personally about any comments, hunches, insights, problems and questions you have. My email address is email.guide@about.com.

You can typically expect a reply on the next day — unless, of course, I'm on a holiday exploring the depths of the world, myself or a cleaning bucket.

If you do not hear from me within that time and (or or) need an answer right now, try posting to the forum. The forum is, naturally and at any time, also a fine place to have fun and enjoy company.

Please read the F.A.Q. below!

F.A.Q.

  1. Q. What was your email address again?
  2. Q. When can I expect a reply?
    A. I usually answer emails on the next day.

    Depending on where you live relative to me (I'm currently enjoying the many amenities of St. Polten, Austria — living, probably, on top of ancient Roman ruins some 37 miles from Vienna), that can be the same day for you, of course, but also only the second day after you sent your message.

  3. Q. What if I need a faster answer? Can I reach you via IM?
    A. Post to the forum, a generally fun and fast place to be.

    Interruptive messaging is too instantaneous for me, sorry. I'd have no time writing replies to emails.

  4. Q. I am or will be in or around Vienna, Austria. Any way to get in touch?
    A. By all means: please let me know! We may be able to entertain some diversions, devour a cup of tea, do email training, or go for a hike.
  5. Q. Should I do or read anything before mailing you?
    A. Good you asked. Kant's Transcendental Deductions (compare prices) is required reading, and I assume you are acquainted well with Heidegger (compare prices). Extra points for French deconstructivists.

    No, I wouldn't make anybody read Förster. But do read Kant himself. And some Mike Dooley (compare prices) maybe.

    Ah, yes. The question. It would be great, of course, if you browsed and searched (box in the top right corner) the site. I love to hear from you either way, though!

  6. Q. Anything else?
    A. I love comments to blog posts. You can leave your thoughts directly there or, of course, email me.

    If you email me, I also enjoy learning something about you. Anything goes!
