cford: what is really needed is for the blogging industry to upgrade their software -and say WHY a post or comment is blocked in an error message.

Can’t do that. It’s an immediate feedback loop to the spammers who then know a little bit more about how to avoid the filter. Give them an hour with that feedback and your blog will be nothing BUT spam.

Myself, I’ve only been moderated a few times, and always when I had a link in the post, which is not surprising, as links are typical of spam. I would suspect that links with more complex HTML addresses have a higher tendency to get blocked.

Anyway, I shant watch Hillary! tonight, as I hope to go the rest of my life without ever hearing her buzzsaw voice again. But all reports seem to indicate she’ll go along to get along, and we won’t get any drama or conflict out of her. Too bad. In the end, she proved a coward. She never hit BHO very hard, and she MUST have known all there is to know about him. She didn’t even bring up all his caucus scaming. Was she really that convinced of her inevitability that she let the little snake sneak unnoticed into her Garden of Eden?
