Comments disabled

The spammers have found us again. For the last several weeks, about once or twice a week, spam commenters have attacked us with several hundred spam comments. For the last three days, however, they haven’t stopped. So we’ve temporarily turned off comments on the whole site. Sorry for the inconvenience.
If you want to share some information with us, please e-mail (use the Contact Us button above), and we’ll add it on to the article as if it were a comment. Hopefully, this outage will be brief.
Thanks for understanding.
—Ian, the Editor
