Hmmmmm.
I rang 1800 500 864. Sam is apparently the "online technical editor" and
works for Fairfax (as oppossed to being a newbie subcontractor). The dude
on the phone was quite helpful, and informs me that Sam Varghese's boss is
Mike van Niekerk (mvanniekerk at f2networks.com.au).
I would expect better from an "editor".
