BLOG SPAM TERMINATOR

· Tuesday, October 14, 2003 · 3 comments

Jay Allen has devised a plug-in for Movable Type that blocks blog comment spam. Several prominent bloggers have already installed it and, as Kevin points out, it can also be used to enforce one’s obscenity policy and for other creative uses.

    Heh. Nope:

    Jay Garrick was the Golden Age (ne Earth II) Flash

    Barry Allen was the Silver Age (ne Earth I) Flash.

    Wally West, formerly Kid Flash, replaced Allen after the Crisis.

    Tanaka Rei was the Earth-D Flash, who I really don’t remember.

    Oh, but I AM The Flash… Didn’t you see how quickly I wrote MT-Blacklist?

    By the way, wouldn’t it be funny if I knew someone named Barry Garrick? 🙂
