Thank you Bots!

Well bots, thanks for giving me a little something to do today.

Since I have been "working" on transitioning my own site to the Zend Framework I stopped development of the custom modules and what not of the current codebase. This led to the ability for the wonderful code that scours the internet to inject random urls to pron or viagra to post comments to my blog. Wonderful. Thanks.

At first I thought, "Eh, who cares, I'll be taking it down soon, anyway..." but considering I won't want to change my rock-solid database structure all that bad data will be a PITA come transition time. So I decided to add a simple question to the comment form to help deter the dumber bots form posting to my blog comments.

They might break it. If they do, I'll have something to do another day.

Yippee!
