New Comment Procedure

Hopefully this will not cut the volume of comments even further, but I just spent an appreciable amount of time deleting viagra spam.

From now on, comments will be moderated, and will operate the same as they have before. you will get an ugly, unstyled page in response to comments that you post.

There is an alternative, for those of you who are interested. If you register with SixApart (at www.typekey.com) you will be able to become â??registeredâ? on this site, and your comments will be posted immediately. They don’t ask for any personal information, and I am fairly sure that they will not sell your e-mail address to anyone.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Note: I did leave one spam entry up, because I thought it was funny, and it was obviously written by a human. It’s a response to â??Scattershootingâ? I don’t know who this person is, and I have the strong feeling that they didn’t know Francie Hammett :-)

    So does this mean that, to counter the potential of less-frequent comments from us, the peanut gallery, you will elect to boost your use of the all-important hot-key word? ;)

    I may have to. :-)

    Although, to be honest, it’s easiest for everyone concerned to just go register at TypeKey, then I’ll ok you for instant posting.

    BTW, I need you to write another inspirational “Kids who play football and never win, finally break through” piece for me.

    SMU kicked the hell out of San Jose St., is 1-0 in conference, and is tied for first place. I better enjoy it while it lasts.

    (I obviously don’t have all the setting correct yet, as it moderates even registered posts… working on it)
