Comment verification

Just a quick housekeeping note: In order to help prevent spam (unwanted comments), I've turned on Blogger's "word verification" feature. What this means to you is that in order to leave a comment, you'll have to go through the extra step of entering a unique word that Blogger gives you (this prevents automated programs from leaving comments, since it requires an actual person to read and enter the word). This shouldn't be a big deal in the grand scheme of things.
