Pardon Our Dust

(Update: the spam filter does seem to be picky, so please do let us know if your comments don’t come through. Unless you’re a spammer, I mean.)

We were temporarily down, after apparently being hacked into. Currently trying to upgrade to fix things. Patience!

Helping

We’ve finally upgraded to the latest version of WordPress. This should mean, among other things, that we can retrieve comments that were mistakenly deleted by an overzealous spam filter. Let us know if anything seems to not work.

    I try not to post about spam on my blogs. My rule is that i delete anything off topic. But when i’ve blogged about spam, well, it’s open season for spammers.

    Blake seems to be trying to tickle your filter. But it’s too funny for real spam. I’d like a spam filter that recognizes humor. If it can do that, it would probably pass a Touring Test. If it could do that, it could probably decide if a comment was spam or not, and nearly always get it right. It could also probably write my articles for me. A real time saver.
