This Is Interesting...

...in the apocryphal-Chinese-curse sense of "interesting."

I just got my first comment spam since I activated word verification, on this post. (Lord only know why that one; it's not one of my more-trafficked posts, as far as I can tell.)

So -- either there's software that can foil word verification, or, somewhere in the third world, there are spam farmers wasting their time posting comments to minor blogs like this one. Since my view of the human race is that it's generally pointless, unnecessarily tedious, and usually ironic, I'm hoping for the latter.

You can't see the spam now, because I deleted it. Yes, I know, but you have to delete spam as soon as you find it. Otherwise, it just encourages them.
