The spammers have found me. Some evil script has been blasting me with literally hundreds of new spam comments every few days. They have to be approved before they show up on the site, but any real comments could easily get lost in the shuffle. I thought that making everyone pick a username and password would help with that. Alas, the crackers are too clever. So if you have a username and password already, you’re all good. But if you want to leave a comment and you don’t yet have a username and password, please email me your comment. I’ll get back to you within a couple days with your comment posted and a username and password for you. I wish the WordPress “spam” feature was savvy enough to avoid all this, but that’s how it is in this vale of tears. And thanks for your comments.

    Hopefully when the War on Terrorism is over we’ll declare war on computer hackers. All we need to do to capture them is put the word out that there will be a Star Trek convention and the admission is free. Then we just detain everyone who shows up and take them downtown for questioning.
