Contact page CAPTCHA (if not logged in)

#154

We should use Brain Buster for the contact page anti-spam solution.

This way we could finally have valid XHTML on the contact page (no need for reCAPTCHA).

You can see an example use of Brain Buster on Tender: https://help.tenderapp.com/discussion/new

This combined with sending validation emails for registrations (#101) would completely eliminate the need for reCAPTCHA...

    How about we have a REALLY simple solution, and see whether it's sufficient?

    For example a check-box with a "Are you a computer?" label?

    Or maybe alternate randomly between "Are you human?" and "Are you a computer?"...
