BTW, sorry about the comment fields. I also find them a bit limiting, but not being a WordPress programmer, I feel a bit limited as to what is offered in the various templates and plug-ins. I know there is not an easy setting to adjust this box, but will be on the lookout for one.

Regarding ReCaptcha, I agree that the words can be a bit confusing, and seem to be getting increasingly so as well. Even with this, there is still a lot of spam comments that get through, literally on a daily basis, that another tool I use then tries to handle as a last resort. Wish it were not the case, though have not seen anything else more effective out there.

Appreciate your persistence, as your comments were rather thought-provoking.
