 * If a user doesn’t have Javascript turned on, Slide2Comment disappears and it 
   shows the naked comment form as if there was no Slide2Comment at all.
 * If a legit user that has Javascript turned off comments in this way, their comment
   gets marked as Spam because it hasn’t passed the slider test.
 * This is a problem. You need to at least announce something for when Javascript
   is turned off, something like a `<noscript` or something like that…
 * > Dear visitor, please turn on your Javascript or your comment could get lost
   > in a heap of spam.
 *  At best you could design a non-JS fallback.
 * Other remarks:
    – Obviously, slider doesn’t work in poor browsers like Opera 
   Mini and the Nokia 5800 Browser 7.0.
 * – Consider making the Slide 2 comment text editable (perhaps CSS3 content after?…
   not sure of compatibility tho.) and make it unselectable, because it gets selected
   accidentally and interferes with the sliding action. (I added -webkit-user-select:
   none;)
 * Otherwise, cheers, great idea!
