I got a lot of spam this week. With mysql I deleted all of it, but comments are now turned off. Except for this entry.

The comments were easy to delete because the blog is in torpor. When it recovers, I’ll need to figure out what blog client to use. I need to add spam protection, but I don’t want to go to the new MovableType and the MT spam blocker script I installed doesn’t adapt… it just reacts.

[update: use “update mt_entry set entry_allow_comments=2″ in your MySQL statement to close comments rather than removing them.]
