I'm not even sure who made the initial ridiculous suggestion that 
this was the case.  Bots are attacking the site just like they attack 
millions of other sites.  What my logs show is a constant bombardment 
of spam attempts from IP addresses that (when looked up) resolve to 
Russia.  Most e-mail addresses submitted for spam accounts end with 
.ru.  However, As I Said, those could also be spoofed.  Who 
knows.  It doesn't matter because it's beyond my control.  Somebody's 
gotta keep me on my toes, know don't they? :)
