I know - I got hit by a really nasty spam invasion last week, while I was avoiding email in my quest for a peaceful Christmas. Dreamhost, my provider, was forced to disable the comments script due to the load it was putting on the server. I can not blame them in the least. I'm going to be upgrading MT soon and switching over to some sort of authentication-required system for comments in the future, so that I no longer have to deal with spamstorms. But for now - no comments. Sorry!
