Why the funny looking email address? That's not a real email address is it?  The answer is, of course, no.  The above are not properly formed email addresses.  The reason we list our email with bogus " (at) " in place of the proper symbol "@" is to confuse SPAM bots and aid in security.   Many of the bad guys "harvest" real email addresses using web robots, scanning the content of millions of websites for anything that looks like an email address.  The harvest is used for everything from ad SPAM to phishing attacks.  We apologize for the inconvenience of having you retype the properly formatted email address.  Perhaps you should consider this technique for your web site!
