Looks like we've been getting hit by some spammers. They are getting a bit more sophisticated, posting a quote from previous message, then adding in a hyperlink. It's a tactic designed to improve their site's rankings. Unfortunately, I'll need to do some things on this end to reduce the frequency of these posts, perhaps disable hyperlinks. I'll do some fiddling in the hope that these guys take a walk. Probably all coming from the same source, a firm trying to improve search rankings of client websites.

As a side reminder, if you have something worthwhile to add to a post, please do so. If there's nothing constructive to add, then please hold your 2 cents. Not only is that sensible, but given the recent spam situation it will make life a bit easier on this end.
