Spam-B-Gone

In an effort to stop the spam robots, I've turned on Word Verification. I hope this doesn't inconvenience anyone or keep people from commenting; I'm just tired of those faux posts that begin "Great Blog!" and then go on to tout snake oil or hair treatments or penis enlargement. If I want advertisements for those things I'll watch TV.

Splendid blog! Might I recommend a reticule enlarger that I have recently chanced upon?

Those reticule enlargers are hard to find...

I'm commenting because I want to find out what Word Verification is. Shall my little post have to empty its pockets, take off its shoes, endure a body cavity search, pass a Turing Test?

Haven't noticed anything yet!

You! Feeley! Up against the wall! Turn out those pockets! And quick: what is the velocity of a laden swallow?

Did you have to type the skewed looking word into the little Word Verification box before you could publish your comment? That was it.

Yeah, I had to do the skewtype before the post went up.
