As a part of the incremental redesign of this website, I had turned non-TypeKey authenticated commenting back on a couple of months ago, although those comments were held for moderation.

My. What a mistake that was. Due to the incredible amount of ringtone spam that this Movable Type installation was receiving amongst other comment spam detritus that was awaiting my approval and causing good comments to go into the junk folder and be lost forever, I have gone back to TypeKey authentication only.

Sorry to folks who really would like to actually comment on a post rather than spam me and the world, but you have to register.
