Good to see you making some posts , Bob. It's not so hard is it?
Tell Diane to take off word verification. It's a pain in the butt. Most blogs have taken off word verification and they haven't had problems.

I know it's a pain (believe me, I know it's a pain), but we do have a number of spammers. Blogger catches most of them, but I still see them in my tracking mail. Unfortunately, that means I think it'll have to stay for now. Sorry.
