Sorry about unpublished comments

I just realized that a number of readers had commented on posts over the past few months and that their comments weren’t published. My system tagged them as spam and I didn’t see them. I get an incredible amount of spam comments to the site. I had decided that my filters were doing a good job and hadn’t bothered to check on the comments. When I finally did (just now) I saw that my filters were doing too good a job. I do apologize and can’t emphasize enough that I welcome and am thankful for all relevant comments. I’ll try to keep an eye on my filters in the future.
