Word verification woes

Am I the only one who sometimes misreads those word verification series of letters in the comment sections of blogs and has to do it over again? I just can't get it when they put letters like ww together. I'm never sure if it is supposed to have a v or a u in there!

BTW, I do think they are worth it to cut out spam.

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
