I added it in above by hand. Still, it stopped 33 spam and only got one false positive: yours. Hm. I’ll have to keep an eye on this.

What you /could/ do is syndicate your blog onto LiveJournal [This takes about two minutes to tell LJ to read your RSS feed], and encourage older-browser peoples to read it there.

Firefox is a sweet browser, no matter if you use Windows, Mac, Unix, Linux…you name it. You really can’t go wrong with Firefox.
