Even though the text area is small, you can enter up to 200 characters
and the text will scroll to the left. Why didn't I put in a multi-line text area?
It is because there are these spam robots that search around for forms with text
areas. On a simple form like this, it would be hard to stop them without
using a captcha, which is that thing that shows an image of squiggly
letters that you must type in before you can submit the form.
