Except if their audio doesn't work, etc....

I'm not at all convinced that CAPTCHA as a concept is a good one.  At 
the very least, I'd recommend that people interested in this concept 
read the W3C report.


Personally, I'm leaning towards simple comment moderation by e-mail, 
which also passes through all the standard anti-spam filters. 
Auto-age out and remove any proposed comments that don't get approved 
by the moderator in a reasonable period of time.

This is more work for the moderator, but also a simple mechanism that 
is much more likely to work in most circumstances.
