Word Verification

Finally fed up with the comment spammers that seem to have bloomed like red algae on Blogger this summer, I have activated the "word verification" feature for my comments. Basically, if you want to comment, you not only have to sign in, you also have duplicate a string of random letters Blogger generates at the bottom of the commenting page. I think it's supposed to stop automated spammer programs or something.

Anyway, I'm sure the spammers are already working on ways around the feature, but for now, hopefully, it'll just be you and me. Not that y'all are saying anything to me...
