Dear Lumpy - I have a question
Dear Lumpy
I'm puzzled. Can you help me? The closest I can get to you is Google Search: http://www.lumpyscorner.com/ and this cached page. I see you in my Technorati links, but you block me from your site. I am not the RIAA. I don't believe I'm a spammer (but I guess everything is in the eye of the beholder.) I'm guessing somehow your IP blocking identifies me as RIAA, but why? How am I identified thusly? I'm curious. You have me in your blogroll - crossed out text, but there. I'd love to know more. Can you fill me in? I am not a Geek but I can learn.

Hey Nancy, I got curious. I'm getting the "block" too so I decided to poke around. Usually, people have the www.domain redirect to an index.html page so I tried:
http://www.lumpyscorner.com/index.html
That seems to let me in. Then I found this description of his attempt to block the IPaddress.

My best guess is that he's gotten a little exuberant with the domains he is blocking.
Heya Scott. I checked today and I can view his page. So I must be back in the whitelist. Lumpy hasn't posted for a while. From one of his April posts, he sounds like a multitasker! Phew!
Thanks!
Hey all,
Very, Very sorry about that. I had this huge barrage of comment spam a while back and, as a temporary measure, I turned off hot linking. (read "Texas Hold em' Barrage" and "Spam Injury") This was a problem since I forgot I had done so.
Somebody did send me an e-mail about it and then I resolved it.
I have since resolved the issue and now allow hot linking.
And yes I am a multi-tasker, mostly busy with radiostatic.am these days.
Again, very sorry.
Lumpy
I love it! A mystery solved. Thanks, Lumpy!
