Where did all the "Last Comments" go?

Well, this pivotlog was the victim of a comment spam attack. I think every single entry (nearly 300 of them) was hit, and I needed to go through every single one of them and delete the spam comment.

Here's the funny thing: they were worded as if to say, "Sorry for the inconvenience, but we'd like to advertise here. Delete this if you wish." Really? Why would I want you to advertise gambling, sex, and pharmaceutical sites on my site? What are you going to pay me to link to them? Yes, I deleted them, please leave me alone, now.
