from Russia with robots

I was thrilled to notice that my blog seemed to be hugely popular in Russia for a while, judging by the number of hits according to the statistics. My heart swelled with pride, thinking that something in my writings must be speaking directly to the complicated Russian soul.

That is, until I noticed I was being flooded with spam comments.

That will teach me to be polite ( read: a smartass ) and answer back to spammers.

Now I've put in word verification for comments. And I find it absolutely enchanting, the request Blogger has of every potential commentator ( I can safely say I have never been asked to prove my humanity before ): "Please prove that you're not a robot."
