The Spam Tide Is Rising

And I've given in, just a bit: I just activated word verification for comments on this blog.

The last straw was when about 65 nearly-identical little spamlets pelted me last night at around 8. I decided, then and there, that going in and killing them one by one was no longer worth the time.

So I hope no one finds word verification too annoying -- on the other hand, I don't get a lot of comments in the first place, so it won't bug anyone very often.
