You Must Now Prove To Me That You Are Human.

OK, as I more than half expected, the amount of comment spam I've been getting here has quickly tipped over from "annoying" to "too annoying," so from now on when you go to leave a comment here you'll be asked why you're not helping the turtle... er, I mean, you'll be asked to type some random letters. Sorry about that.

    The online Voight-Kampff test, nice idea.
    I had spam that actually responded to my complaints within my blog about spam.

    It's a nice touch that they allow for blind users, or those using text-only browsers, with a audio option.

    Even better than I expected.

    Personally I like to try and define the 'words' you have to type in -- for example, this time, I've got nujawtrp: the Tagalog word for when you must travel cross-country to see a specialist to fit you with an artificial jawbone...

    Bwahahaha! I like that one.

    Hmm. Right now it's giving me iywbhys, which sounds like something rude in Welsh.

    Boy, and I thought getting my first two the other day was a milestone. (Irritating, yes, but a milestone nonetheless.)

    By the way, the one they gave me is "ikcyr" -- almost an anagram for "Crikey!"
