Yea I know. This whole anti-spam whatever thingy is -1 for accessibility.

I was thinking about some challenge/response system (using email) to get
arround this, but it also sort of sucks.

Another problem with all this is: If you decide to use the nospam image
thingy, you can't use trackback/commentAPI/whatever. Well you can, but
then the spam just starts comming in through there.

Why can't the world just be a place where there are no such things like
spammers (sigh).
