just a small note: i'm currently having a serious issue with spam comments (you know the kind: link list after link list all posted by anonymous) so for the time being i'm eliminating the ability to comment anonymously in the hopes of stemming the influx of such. i apologize if this proves an inconvenience--i just really, really, really don't won't to go back to word verification. {i HATE WORD VERIFICATION comments}. xo
