Dave - FYI on my system www.r2.ly redirects to:
http://www.adjix.com/WebObjects/Adjix.woa/

I pinged the domain and got this IP 67.121.212.61, which looks right.

Thought it might be my corporate IT DNS caching, but I checked my phone too and got the same result.

What is the domain of your google apps install?

The user style file targets these combos:
// @include https://*.google.com/calendar/render/*
// @include http://*.google.com/calendar/render/*
// @include htt*://*.google.*/calendar/render*

If your GCall domain location is different, you need to adjust the js file.

It should solve your spam problem. After I installed that WP plugin very few comments got through, and when they did Askimet caught them.

It's looking to be a good install. Since I activated this AM, 225 attempts caught. No spam got through yet...

We'll see, if this doesn't solve the problem I may move back to Textpattern.

Sorry about that, Marge. I've changed the commenting system to the one I use on my blog. Have gotten a bunch of 'site ate my comments' complaints over the last few months. Hopefully this helps.

Re: Joe the (unlicensed) Plumber?

OK, so maybe the points were valid for the 5% of small business owners (or what ever extreme minority it is) that it applies to, but why keep on this 'Joe the Plumber' guy if his story isn't true? Two dozen times. McCain dug his own grave on this one...

Why? Because 'Joe the Plumber''s "story" is more compelling than saying a (wealthy) small percentage of you will have your taxes go up under Obama's plan. That doesn't sell the issue to the majority of middle class (or 90-something percent who will get a tax cut under Obama) viewers... but "hey, if you work hard and get to a point where you can become an entrepreneur, you are going to be penalized for your hard work." does (or at least more so)... why not come out and say that, instead of keeping on this fake life story? Or, how about this... even easier: find a guy (or gal) that it really applies to and make them the centerpiece of your debate? That would have been too easy, huh?

To me, it just seems as if the McCain campaign has repeatedly shown they aren't very interested in the details, which is a big deal when you want to be a leader of a world super power (in my opinion.)

Sour grapes, you're right... but it's the McSame campaign saying "I'm taking my ball and going home," because they don't like their VP being vetted in public.

Saw a recent poll -- over 65% of Americans have no clue about Palin's past performance, her credentials as a 'reformer', or the scandals she is involved in... but almost 70% know about her daughter's pregnancy.

Are those the kind of priorities Repubs value? The tabloid, half truth, spin-it-to-death stories? It sure seems like those are the ones they are pushing, because they have no where to stand on the real issues.

I mean, what excites you about McCain? If you make under $250k per year, you'll get a better tax break; some kind of universal health care; more focus on the environment and alternative, renewable energies; focus on actually improving education (rather than a policy with a snappy name that doesn't do anything, like Bush); someone who actually understands the constitution and defends it; and someone who acknowledges that the economy is actually doing pretty poorly for a vast majority of Americans -- with Obama.

Palin and McCain don't talk about those issues very much, because they can't compete. Their campaign manager even says so... it tells you a lot about the campaign, when both acceptance speeches didn't touch on very many key issues (McCain's) or none at all (Palin).

Good luck, Louis. I'll know where you're at in a few weeks myself. My wife is 30 weeks pregnant with twin girls. To add to it, we have a 13 month old daughter! Like others have said (and I've heard other places too): routine, routine, routine! Definitely keep us posted.
