 The blog comments used to ask you to add two numbers while submitting your
 comment. That didn't remove all spam, but it sure did cut down on it.

 In the past week that feature somehow got disabled. The result is that we
 get about one spam comment per minute, which is a rate that I can't keep
 up with. So I've disabled comments on the blog for now on the permissions
 table:
 https://blog.torproject.org/admin/user/access

 But it would be great to re-enable them, and some sort of rate limiting or
 captcha or something system seems needed for that.

 Is there a drupal package we need to install? Or is it installed but
 configured to be disabled?
