In writing a regular expression to delete some 400+ spam comments that appeared here this evening I made a typo that I didn’t discover until after the first pass, and it looks as though I deleted some not only legitimate but very welcom comments on several posts, including some recent ones. The typo was subsequently corrected and that won’t happen again (at least until I do something similarly stupid in the future), but if you notice that one or more of your comments are missing be assured (well, maybe that’s not exactly what you should be) that they were deleted in error and not as an exercise of censorship. I apologize for the resulting gaps in some of the comment threads below.
