This blog is a random collection of information, partly in support of my quotations web site. Other topics include wine, military news, economics, history, libertarianism, and other random things which happen to strike my fancy. Backup site is at http://quotulatiousness.blogspot.com/ (if there are no posts showing, hit the backup blog for explanation). Comments have been turned off, as the spam was getting too much to handle. Comments can be emailed to me for posting.

Spam, Spam, Spam, Wonderful Spam

I don't get an overwhelming number of comments on this blog: a couple per day, on average. What I do get in higher numbers are spam comments (usually for 0nline p0ker, v!agra, c!al!s, and T3xas h0ld-em). Does anyone have a suggestion for some form of relatively unobtrusive Turing test plug-in for MovableType?

I don't want to use what Damian Penny is using, because I've been unable to comment there since he installed whatever it is (my login doesn't work), and I've talked to a few other bloggers who've had the same problem.

Suggestions are very welcome!

I posted a similar request recently... a suggestion was posted to comments but I have yet to follow-up on it due to midterms: http://www.ghostofaflea.com/archives/003721.html Are you running MT Blacklist? Posted by: Flea at November 7, 2004 08:14 PM
That looks like the sort of thing I think would work. . .now to convince Jon that he really wants to install it just to keep my spamkilling workload down. . . Posted by: Nicholas at November 8, 2004 12:46 AM
