OT: SPAM Attack, Google's Filter Freely Lets In SPAM

No, I'm not talking about Finnish trolls or any other familiar "spams" at this blog. All this morning and into the afternoon, people with the Google profiles have been spamming the comment section of the posts. I probably deleted 2 dozen already.

Here's the latest:

Iris H.Maldanado has left a new comment on your post "India's First Fast Breeder Reactor to Go Critical ...":

I was suggested this web site by my cousin. I'm not sure whether this post is written by him as nobody else know such detailed about my trouble. You're amazing! Thanks!
Spectrum Transfertube Combination Dropping Pipets; Volume: 4mL

What's the matter, Google? There's some serious filter failure on your part.

I guess no one is interested in system maintenance at Google.

OT: Comments on This Blog

Ever since the earthquake/tsunami/Fukushima I nuke plant accident on March 11, an increasing number of people have started to come to my blog. Many have commented on the posts, offering insights, links, criticisms, corrections, encouragements.

Thank you very much for your participation.

However, an increased traffic has also brought "spams" recently, which, unlike the other comments I receive, don't seem to be based on facts or reality and which Google has already, automatically categorized as "spam". These new "spams" are not selling anti-virus software, trip to India, or cruise lines, but they seem to promote the idea that I'm lying to suit my agenda. What agenda I haven't a clue. (That I am against the Fed? LOL) So Google must have a good reason to categorize these messages as gibberish and as spam. I wouldn't have even known these comments had been received if I hadn't happened to click on the "spam" tab by accident.

I continue to welcome all your comments from the fact-based, reality-based world, but I will let Google continue to do its work of identifying the "spams" and keeping "spams" under the "spam"tab.
