Hi, all,  In an ongoing attempt to encourage comments and remove barriers to same, I've changed a couple of settings here on my dashboard.  The upshot is that comments should be easier to post (and without the 'Captchas'), but I will be asked to 'moderate' posts.  If this means what I think it means, you will be able to post without restriction, then I get to look at your post before it goes public in the blog.

I'm hoping this will accomplish two things:

1. You will be able to comment much more easily (I've had perfectly intelligent, highly capable people tell me that the 'Captchas' are not working properly).

2. By requiring moderation, I am hoping to spare you all from the spam that may or may not result by removing the 'Captcha' defense to spambots.


Stay tuned for further developments!  (In the meantime, write a comment to this post and let's see if we can't get the dialog flowing!!!)

Later.
