Word Verification for Comments or - weird spam suddenly invades
I'm sorry to say I've had to institute word verification in order for folks to comment on the blog. You know - those stupid letters you have to retype to prove you're a human. In the past 24 hours, I've deleted scores of messages telling me I had new comments on the blog -- all of them spam. I don't have any idea what the spammers get out of spamming on blogs... but this is the only way to prevent them, I think.
So, apologies, especially to low-vision users who I know have a hard time with these stupid thingies.
