So far I have already deleted 4 spam comments, but Blogger just sends me an email in which I can indicate that the comment is spam and then delete it in a single click.<br /><br />And I hope Blogger does not continue to throw more road blocks in our way. It's free though, so I guess we can't complain too much.<br /><br />Chiana, that guy DOES look like he's running, doesn't it? Weird. I've seen quite a few photos of the Viewliner in which it looks mostly empty. And as for your rant, I feel your pain!!<br /><br />Yes, you can set it so that just signed-in readers can comment, but (as I mentioned in an earlier reply to you) I do have nice commenters who appear to not have Google accounts. <br /><br />Thufer, we'll see how it goes....Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-49417381022166993572012-03-24T07:57:16.695-07:002012-03-24T07:57:16.695-07:00Very nice shot.

I failed to notice the triangular sign over the ViewLiner station before. Is that a flower bed in front of the sign in front of the station? If so, it looks like an older guy is really in danger of the dog house, 'cause he seems to be running to get a flower. Ok maybe he's running to catch the ViewLiner, but my story is more romantic. The ViewLiner is at least half occupied so far, so it was drawing passengers for sure.<br /><br />Some may make fun of how "quaint" the Viewliner, Rocket to the Moon/Mars or Peoplemover may have been, but they tried. Just compare it to what the far richer current company has contributed to society as a glimpse of future transport: nothing! They've only subtracted some of the decades old attractions they were given, offering enhanced cosmetics, landscaping, other people's entertainment franchises (Star Wars, Aliens) and gimmicks but contributing no ideas of value. [ /rant ]<br /><br />Is there a way to set it so it just CAPTCHAs if you're not signed in? It's silly it CAPTCHAs users who are signed in, because they had to pass a CAPTCHA to sign up! If the SPAM got past the CAPTCHA to create an account, it already beat the CAPTCHA (or is an older account that shoulda been removed). Anyway, enough about that. I appreciate your thoughtfulness on this Maj. If it doesn't work out and you have to reinstate it, I fully understand.Chiana_Chathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18329208224763179478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-49795633896908594412012-03-24T04:00:03.557-07:002012-03-24T04:00:03.557-07:00Yay, the Viewliner!

First there was that annoying "slide show" view of the photos (which I'm glad you turned off on your blog) and now there's the annoying blurry two-word comment verification thingy.
