Administrivia
Getting rid of the re-captcha has increased spam, but most of it is falling into the spam box so readers don't see it. Eli is going to be a sometimes thing for a few days, so things may be a bit rougher than usual. Persevere

Eli meant to behave but there were way too many options.

Eli Rabett
Eli Rabett, a not quite failed professorial techno-bunny who finally handed in the keys and retired from his wanna be research university. The students continue to be naive but great people and the administrators continue to vary day-to-day between homicidal and delusional without Eli's help. Eli notices from recent political developments that this behavior is not limited to administrators. His colleagues retain their curious inability to see the holes that they dig for themselves. Prof. Rabett is thankful that they, or at least some of them occasionally heeded his pointing out the implications of the various enthusiasms that rattle around the department and school. Ms. Rabett is thankful that Prof. Rabett occasionally heeds her pointing out that he is nuts.

One option at some web sites is to allow a new re-captcha if the current one is unintelligivle. Why were the re-captcha's getting more and more difficult to read? Were computers getting better than humans at reading them?

BillD well, this one let you refresh until you got a (barely) legible one. But yes, and for that reason Rabett Run isn't quite the place to make it a key topic, but it's a real issue.
Put another way, there has to be a statistical line drawn at some point. I wish I could get OCR as good as the spammers allegedly have.
