Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

The e-mail addresses you found in Monday’s Newsmakers would have worked fine had they included the @ character, or “at sign.”

Technology sometimes gets ahead of itself, and our wire feed from The Associated Press does not include the @. Although the AP warned us to insert it, we don’t always do what we’re told: We forgot to put it in.

If you’re still with us, please try again to send your mail to these luminaries:

– The Dalai Lama [email protected]

– Newt Gingrich [email protected]

– Keith Richards [email protected]

The published e-mail address for Billy Idol no longer works.
