I have to do some database work on my blog, which will require taking the database offline. So, I'm closing comments site wide for a while. Hopefully won't take longer than the weekend.
UPDATE: Maintenance is complete, comments are back open and salguod.net is now coming to you in fabulous UTF-8 character encoding. If you notice any goofy characters in any posts or comments, let me know.
There's a goofy character named Keith Brenton in the comments here sometimes!
