Whew!

Well, no damage here from Ice Storm 07 - didn't even lose power. Although shutting down my servers proved useful, as I discovered that a SPAM blocker hadn't been reset for updating, and works much better after the reboot. It'd only been catching about 40% of recent SPAM, and this morning it's back up to about 95% - so shutting down was definitely worth the hassle.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
