"...one of the strongest motives that lead men to art and science is escape from everyday life with its painful crudity and hopeless dreariness, from the fetters of one's own ever-shifting desires. A finely tempered nature longs to escape from the personal life into the world of objective perception and thought." - Albert Einstein

Comment Spam and NoFollow attribute

I have been getting large amounts of comment spam. There are two type of comment spam I regularly get. The first type is just a bunch of gibberish links to Viagra and other spam sites. This is probably left by a robot. The second is superfluous or gratuitous comments. There must be people hired to leave this junk because it partly make sense in the context of the post they are commenting on.

I still let commenters leave a url with their name. I just added the 'nofollow' attribute to the link. Hopefully this may help increase my Google page rank as well.
