Ok, in the face of a massive uptick in comment spam, I've turned off anonymous commenting. I didn't want to do that, because sometimes you get something like this, but this was no longer tenable. At first screening all anonymous comments by default seemed to work; now they no longer care. Screw them, dammit.

Well, that's the thing with HD recovery: the eventual outcome involves a large amount of luck. In that particular case, I was lucky to manage to extract that much data from drive before it finally kicked it. So now I'm rather more paranoid about keeping regular backups. :/
