A General Note About Comments
The Devoted Classicist usually reads the posts of fellow Bloggers on his mobile phone and finds the verification process particularly troublesome, sometimes requiring two (or more) tries to duplicate the security code. Since the comments are moderated, this process has been eliminated for those wanting to comment on this site in an effort to streamline the process of creating an informative and friendly conversation. While those who leave a comment are a tiny fraction of the total who read The Devoted Classicist, the comments are a very welcome part of the whole process of Blogging. The security software of Blogger prevents adding a link in the comments so that another reader cannot inadvertingly click on a site that will contain spyware or other dangerous viruses, but that does not stop Spammers from trying. Efforts to promote these links have grown to more than twenty a day, and contain comments, for the most part, that make no sense at all, much less be pertinent to the subject of the essay. Although there is a standard option given to submit Anonymous comments, it is the policy of The Devoted Classicist to prohibit these comments from being published; it just adds to confusion for those who enjoy reading the comments (which can sometime be very, very interesting indeed). So the security verification process will remain unactivated for the time being, but remember to choose an identity other than Anonymous. And understand that comments with pleas such as "be sure to check out my site for my shop of underwater basketweaving" cannot be published.
Beautiful. And the collection of 18th and 19th c. brass candlesticks is first rate.

Mary, a candle is always a welcome addition to a room, isn't it? Thanks for commenting.
DeleteThis is a lovely piece! Thomas' work always delights - as does yours, DC!
ReplyDeleteBethany, I am often asked about interiors going out of style, but you wouldn't know this was published 16 years ago, would you? Thank you for your compliment.
DeleteAnd I've always wanted to let you know about my stunning new collection of basketweave underwear....; yes, I know very tedious, and repetitive.
ReplyDeleteColumnist, humor always helps us through, doesn't it? Thanks for your always-appreciated comment.
