A Funny Thing Happened At The Weekly …

... SR Editor's meeting this afternoon. I brought up all the complaints re: our comment letters. And Editor Steve Smith mentioned how he'd tried to post a comment on "News Is A Conversation" -- only to be blocked five times. "That's unacceptable," Steve roared. To which Blogmeister KenS responded that 18,000 spams per day (the actual number we were getting before Blogmeister Ryan installed the letters system) was even worse. Reluctantly, I agreed with Ken. But I did bring up the issue of going to registration ASAP. Stay tuned.
