World History
I have decided to be less restrictive on the comment policy on this blog. I will now allow anonymous comments.
Here are some rules that govern their approval:
1. Comments with links to other sites will be assumed to be spam and deleted. If you feel you must link to another url, do so and I will look at it. However, unless the link is helpful and not a disguised SEO (search engine optimization) trick attempting to get free Google PR juice, it will be deleted and never published.
2. Comments must be related to the post. If you are attempting to contact Miland Brown, post a comment on the contact page. I will respond if I am interested.
3. Comments must be respectful. You are welcome to disagree with me and I will approve your post. If your comment is hostile and disrespectful, I will delete it. I am very tolerant and will be forgiving. However...
4. Comments should not be posted just to refer to a book. Even if you do not link to the publisher's url, I will not approve comments which appear to just be hyping a book.
This post will be linked to from the main page of the World History Blog and be considered a core policy.
Thank you.

Just a note that Blogger now has comment moderation enabled. I have turned it on. This means that I will have to manually approve every comment before it appears. I check my e-mail frequently (I will receive automatic messages when a comment is left)...

They will not go away. Despite adding word verification (and required ID's) to stop automated spambots, I am still getting spam in my comments. Apparently the spammers are now creating accounts just to spam. They manually enter the word verification...
