New Commenting Policy
Because of the enormous flood of spam comments of recent date, I am chaning my commenting policy. There will now be a short (or perhaps lengthy) delay (all depends on when I can get to it) before any comment will be published. I apologize for the inconvenience, but I am spending more time editing out spam than I would do approving the few comments I get.
If you make a comment and it doesn't show up here, simply fire off an e-mail and I'll get to it.

What you are starting to do is what I have been doing for awhile. It prevents spam from hitting the comboxes, but it still takes way too much of my time. I am thinking about moving to one of those character recognition things, where you have to type the letters you see in the box.
Keep us posted as to how your de-spammification is going.

Dear Erik,
I don't know if that is available to me. I'll have to check and see if it's part of the set up. I suspect it is the better way to go because I'm going to have to approve even this comment.
shalom,
Steven
