Following the Joomla or Drupal conversation at OLDaily, I decided to throw in my own 2 cents by way of a comment -half serious and half in jest.
Within a fraction of a second I got my response.
Well, thanks for thinking about it anyway

Generations from now, they won't call it the Internet anymore. They'll just say, "I logged on to the Jim Groom this morning.

Jim Groom is a fiery man.
-Antonella Dalla Torre
“Reverend” Jim “The Bava” Groom, alias “Snake Pliskin” is a charlatan and a fraud, a self-confessed “used car salesman” clawing his way into the glamour of the education technology keynote circuit via the efforts of his oppressed minions at the University of Mary Washington’s DTLT and beyond. The monster behind educational time-sink ds106 and still recovering from his bid for hipster stardom with “Edupunk”, Jim spends his days using his dwindling credibility to sell cheap webhosting to gullible undergraduates and getting banned from YouTube for gross piracy.

Because a lot of nonsense spam has been flooding websites, my antispam mechanism checks the response for some sense. It’s a very simple test, but it pretty reliably eliminates quips like this, in addition to the nonsense spam.
The nice thing is that it forces writers to be at least a little expressive. Even with the benefit of context, I don’t know what you intended to say.
Stephen,
I was pretty impressed that it knew what I was saying was somewhat glib. I was just following a faulty logic I’ve been pushing through for a while, i.e. WordPress as a more sophisticated CMS. When I saw the question about Joomla and Drupal posed on OLDaily, I decided to throw out a comment, which was somewhat without context, irresponsible and juvenile. Nonetheless, I was thwarted. Which now is going to prompt me to write a more sustained post on the subject. So your CMS not only keeps out the riff raff, it makes folks think through their ideas in a more structured sense! Now, that’s a spam filter! Why would you want another?
Thanks for engaging my nonsense and keeping me honest!
