implemented anti-spam validator
forced into action; i finally had to react to comment spam by putting in a minimal validation step (copied from craig). crap. but deleting all that stuff from the database and my inbox was getting tiresome. now if only i could figure a way to block trackback spam without stopping trackbacks altogether. and then there's referer spam, both in the blog database, and in the web server logs. those seem to have dropped off lately. knock on [something handy].
spoke too soon - the referral spam is pretty thick today and recently.
