All I did was find something I liked and share it.

On the other hand, an “it” might not be up to that level of comprehension (yet).

(Will spambots contribute (much) to the evolution of A.I. ? 🙂 )

I thought it was nice…How could you tell it was spam and not just someone a little clumsy with the language?

retriever: you could actually be right.

What made me a bit suspicious is that is was sent by “anonymous”, and was a comment on this post of mine Pretty much says it all….

I’ll let you all judge if the comment fits the post.
(I intercepted it before it could be published. Maybe I should have let it, instead. 🙂

I mean the body of the message is entirely in Russian.

I’d probably have been fooled… I recently left a complimentary comment on a French photographer’s blog that may have them scratching their head in the conviction that my rusty French means I am a spammer…

What is he/she/it trying to accomplish? Perhaps poetry—“hats afar to you send” and “audacious for the duration” are especially felicitous phrases.

Approvingly your article helped me truly much in my college assignment. Hats afar to you send, will look audacious for the duration of more cognate articles in a jiffy as its united of my choice topic to read.

STILL cannot fathom what the author (anonymous) is trying to accomplish.

In the words of Al Swearingen:
“It escapes me. I cannot figure his f***ing angle.”

Of course, his next line was, “Go ahead and f***ing fight him!”, which might not be applicable here. 🙂
