 * Despite having the WP-reCAPTCHA plugin installed I still get, what I think are,
   a large amount of spam comments. Perhaps 20 per day.
 * Is this normal? I would have expected that it would be very hard indeed to bypass
   the re-captcha system to write a comment so am I doing something wrong or am 
   I misunderstanding the comments process here?
