Server gremlins
We had some server problems over the weekend that prevented any News & Record blog from posting new entries or recording new comments that were offered on existing ones. If one of your comments got zapped, I apologize. The issue seems to have been repaired.
Due to recent automated spamming attacks on our blogs, we are temporarily requiring commenters to authenticate themselves via TypeKey® before posting comments to any News & Record blog in order to prevent denials of service. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
