Spam comments...

It seems that the comment submission system on this blog has been cracked by bots (or, by the looks of it, one bot). Consequently I'm going to turn off the comment submission system for a bit and I hope to look through the blog's code and make some improvements soon (issues with the statistics systems have developed too). Neither problem is simple, so don't expect quick solutions - in fact, I'm not sure of the cause of either problem (in both cases there's significant potential that the problem is with something on which the blog is built), so expect various diagnostics to go on and possibly temporarily show themselves on the blog.

As always, I hope to have things fixed as soon as possible, but I am quite busy at the moment and the priority of blog problems, especially these non-critical ones, falls far below most other things. However, you will certainly see the spam comments being cleaned up in the near future.
