Peter Kaminsky has noticed a strange phenomenon in the comments coming into his blog:

I’ve gotten a few of these curious spam comments recently. They’re fairly reasonable-looking, from a proxy IP (the ones I looked at have been associated with Tor, although I don’t know if Tor was used in this case) and they have an arbitrary five-digit number in the comment…

The comments have no link or other obvious spam purpose. What’s really interesting though is the large number of completely plausible explanations and nifty ideas the post has received in its comments. Via Boing Boing.
