There are lots of things that you don't think about when running a website. For the last few days, I've been hit with hundreds of new registrations from russian websites. We can only have so many Vladimir Polchkas before things start looking funny. Then I had to go find a way to install a captcha for people to register. Figured it out finally, hopefully it works.

This hobby can be time consuming.

I for one appreciate all your hard work! Though to be honest i never put more thought into the question is the pole part of the street sign or not before my first Captcha. LOL

@spinpole2001

Apparently the only way to tell humans from robots is to see if they can tell a street light from a bicycle or a cross walk. Hah!

@evolvingyourman_ivcr4j It won't be long before AI defeats that too.  Technology moves too fast
