Trying Something New With Comments
After being flooded with spam comments, all of which start off with flattering words like "Great blog you've got here!," I was toying with the idea of turning off the comments completely. This morning I discovered that Blogger has a word verification feature that requires anyone wishing to leave a comment to type a series of displayed characters before doing so. This is supposed to circumvent automated spamming. So, I'll experiment with that first. I'll just have to learn how to cope in the absence of all that "sincere" praise.

We need to get you out in the blogosphere more often :-)
The verification works. I've not had to remove a single spam comment since rolling it out on my blog.

Because I said so blog
Great blog you've got here!...Ha, just messing with ya. I also enjoy your Pensees interviews (that is you right?)
OK, son of puddleglum, you got me. You should have seen the panicked look on my face when I read your first sentence.
Yes, that's me doing the Pensees interviews. I'm glad you enjoy them. Thanks a lot for for taking the time to let me know.
As a skeptic, a deist, and former-Christian, I want to say that that crimson guy is a jerk and in no way represents us non-theists.

Blog away!
Wow, you're funny. =)
