Has someone poisoned Hemlock?

Last night and this morning I tried to post comments on Hemlock's must-read "Big Lychee" blog, only to receiuve the following message each time:

What I was going to say today, after CY Leung's latest nonsensical outburst,  is "Can someone buy CY a wheelchair as a retirement gift?  He must have run out of feet to shoot himself in by now."  That seems a useful enough suggestion to me.

Either Wordpress suddenly dislikes me, or there's something funny going on.  The odd thing is that comments from others seem to be getting through OK.  Any ideas?

Anyway, do read Hemlock's posts for the last two days.  He has a real talent for cutting through the Hong Kong government's crap and skewering their stupidity with incisive reasoning.

actually I found more hoops to jump thru posting on Wordpress (which Hemlock uses...)

Send your comments directly to hemlock if you got his email...

It's a helluva lot easier to post a comment on Big Lychee than it is on the Blogger service you use. If you've got a problem posting on Big Lychee, it's on your end, not his.

It's IMPOSSIBLE to post a comment on your site, man.

Thanks for the comments. it's clearly not impossible to post a comment on my site, because there are 4 on this post, including the one claiming it's impossible! I use comment moderation, but only to filter out spam. And I'm not so sure the problem is at my end - Hemlock's comments function was previously disabled for weeks, so Wordpress obviously isn't infallible. Does anyone have Hemlock's direct email?

You can email Hemlock by clicking on the "Email Big Lychee" icon, remarkably enough.
