Note to dhw about spam: (Introduction)

Many thanks for your comments and suggestions ... especially Tony's noble offer to kneecap the idiots who are trying to wreck the site. At present I'm logging on three or four times a day to delete the spam, but of course it accumulates during the night and clogs up the list of 40 last entries. It would be interesting to know how Romansh and Agnostics International deal with it.-I'm still waiting for Neil to get back to me. He is our technical wizard, but maybe he's away at the moment. We might have to get all contributors to register, as I think it's possible then to block posts from the undesirables. I don't like forcing folk to do this, as I myself am extremely wary of any site that demands personal details, but it may be the only way ... at least temporarily. And as far as I know, all our regular writers have already registered anyway. But let's see what Neil suggests.
