Admin Note About Comments

Some of our LCRs (Loyal and Constant Readers)--well, one of the two of them--noticed that I've now enabled Word Verification for comments. It's not to discourage comments from you LCRs or even you OIABMRs (Once in a Blue Moon Readers). Instead, I've found it necessary to keep the blog defended against "commentbots" whose irrelevant and offensive comments have increased in the last several weeks.
