Sometimes I'll look at the spam that my blog filters for me, and I usually get the "you should write more on this issue" emails. <br /><br />Then sometimes my blog gets too filter-happy and tags innocent comments as spam.

Sentence fragments that make little sense are the strangest one. Of course a comment doesn't need to be a complete sentence. The filter has been busy since around the beginning of this year. I think someone in Eastern Europe found my blog. Most all the spam comes in during the early hours of the morning here.
