I think I will quit doing that.<br /><br />I even wondered as I read your post if the comments that go into the spam folder on blogger count. I will get a notice by email that I have received the comment but it never shows up on the blog. <br /><br />I have been blogging for 6 years but there is a lot I don't know. I suppose that is why I keep doing it. I love the learning curve.<br /><br />No spam here. Just interest.

That person had way too much time on their hands. BTW, when I check my stats, your blog is one of the highest sources for my blog. Don't know why and I'm not monetized, just interesting.

There's my attempt at being a spam comment. Seriously, this is interesting stuff. I haven't experienced this yet, but if I keep at it I probably will. Good to know.
