Brief Note
Because I am getting upwards of 800 attempts to post spam comments a day (gee, what would it be like if this blog were actually read by more than fifteen or so people) I have instituted a feature that sends everything to moderation if there are any links (including the link that you put in the URL request box). If you don't include links you should still go right through.
Sorry, but it's like having hordes of rodents constantly trying to get over your fence and into your back yard.
