On another note, I rarely go to this blog's spam folder, and I should do that more often. I found hundreds of legitimate comments from regular readers labeled as spam that never published! I even found some that I had (thought I had) posted. Apparently Blogger thinks that very short comments are liable to be spam. My apologies to everyone affected. If you notice that your comments are not being published, please send me an email to remind me to clean things up.

When I comment it's usually a couple of paragraphs. Often I'm shown the message "Something went wrong," and at that point I give up and move on. I figure, maybe things will work and maybe they won't. Anyway, if this gets through, thanks for your delightful work. I'm a huge fan.

I've noticed sometimes , not often, a comment doesn't appear. I just figure I forgot to hit the orange button. Nothing I write is worth worrying about anyway.
