Feedback now has to be authenticated 2 Jun 2008 The snivelling little boy, Mats Envall, who thinks that walking into someone’s living room and pissing on the floor is acceptable behaviour, has forced me to make comments require my manual authentication. I am sorry for the rest of you, but we are up to 122 spams from the idiot. Those who routinely comment I can mark as authenticated in general using IP numbers, so that might take the sting off it. So far we have been relatively civilised here – I’m sorry that this troll has made things less pleasant for you all. I bet this is how Envall got his paper published, by effectively bullying the editors into accepting the very badly written and argued paper that started all this. Anyone else who is thinking of commenting or even mentioning that paper: this is what Envall will do once you have – run to your private forums and spam. Administrative
Administrative The dangers of walking 11 Apr 201221 Jun 2018 I have long said that exercise is dangerous: that 100% of all those I know who are physically active injure themselves. But I never expected that just frigging walking could be so problematic and fraught with danger! I was on my way to meet some folk for lunch (Lygon Street,… Read More
Administrative Passing thoughts and miscellany 8 Oct 20118 Oct 2011 First of all it occurs to me that people who expect the Singularity to occur simply do not get the logistic growth curve. I’ll just throw that out there. Second, the Great Migration Back to the Homeland (i.e., my move back to Melbourne) happens this week so I will probably… Read More
Administrative The "who" thread 8 Jul 2010 I am, as they say in The Home Country, gobsmacked. I expected that I would have a few geeks (I’m a Geek! Say it Loud!) who read me because I was sort of interesting. Instead I find Phuds, scientists, philosophers and just plain interesting people. If one is judged by… Read More

Don’t you have a killfile? PZ has been consigning spammers and other wise obnoxious and destructive commenters to the dungeon for quite a while. It would certainly be a lot less work.
Does having a comment approved and posted on Evolving Thoughts qualify a person as an Elite Bastard? I hope so. That way I don’t need sit the Elitist Bastard examinations.
For some reason, the junk filters don’t work on my site, and the wanker was banned, but he tried to evade that ban by nymshifting and putting nonsense email addresses in (130 now, and still rising!). I will try to approve you all but Movable Type doesn’t seem to like my configuration. And yes, you are all Elite Bastards.
