Spammers Win This Round

Okay, Gang, I'm sorry to succumb to the evil bastards who have no soul but plenty of bandwidth, but the spamming has become intolerable.

Therefore, I've been forced to invoke the "word verification" feature on this blog, which will require that you type in a word to post a comment.

I apologize for the inconvenience, but I figure it's the lesser of two evils: impose word verification, or continue to serve as the repository for every scumbag spam on the planet.

Hopefully, this will be a temporary situation, until the spammers get tired of hitting the roadblock, or some genius figures a way to filter out the crap.

Again, I'm sorry to add this pain-in-the-behind extra step, but those of you simlarly afflicted will certainly understand.

Thanks for your patience and loyalty.
