How does one best contact dan200?

Dan's forum profile over at the computercraft forums might be a good place to start. Records show that he was active there within the last month or so, at least:

Also found this,
Contact Me
For professional enquiries, I can be reached at dratcliffe at gmail dot com. For anything else, the best way to reach me is Twitter.

His Github repository, last active 9 days ago, might also be a good bet if you haven't tried this yet:

Can't blame you for wanting to avoid Twitter. Personally, I despise everything that it represents. But there's the gmail address as well, which may or may not be productive.

I have no problem with directly connecting (side-by-side) computer and Roc/ReC TEs tested with cc 1.73 and latest RoC/ReC. However i don't get modems to work with them. I can't even place the modem.

Code:
local pjf = peripheral.wrap("down")
print(pjf.getTemperature())
This error is a fault in Braidedheadman's code. It should be
Code:
local pjf = peripheral.wrap("bottom")

To be fair, it's been a while since i tinkered with CC and confusing "bottom" with "down" is a rather easy mistake to make. :)

Investigating further, I didn't catch that RainbowTractor was using CC's print() function, which does not output natively to attached monitor peripherals. If RainbowTractor is attempting to pass output from print() to a monitor, it will throw this type of error. The output from the print() function must be redirected to the monitor through the term() API, as in:

Code:
----- wrap the monitor and redirect terminal output:

local s = peripheral.wrap( sSide )
term.redirect(s)

----------

local x = peripheral.wrap("right")
print(x.listMethods())

However, perhaps most importantly given the example code he's using,
Maybe I'm messing something in the game. I'm using an andvanced computer and when I try "openp/docs right" it says "No such program" and when I run this code:
Code:
local x = peripheral.wrap("right")
print(x.listMethods())
It throws a "test:2: attempt to call nil" whenever there's a ReactorCraft block attached. It works fine with other blocks.

listMethods() is not supported by any reactorcraft block that I've tested and throws nil when called because, ostensibly, it does not appear to exist. He's calling a fictitious method on the assumption that you've coded it where other mod authors may have. :p

No, what I mean is, this issue has been reported something like 30-50 times in the past month....what does that say about either people's skill level or their readiness to report something to me, legitimate or not?
