reCAPTCHA Sucks!

Yes... I'm AWARE that "word verification" has suddenly popped up for comment moderation.

No... I didn't turn it on... it turned itself on.

Yes... I tried to turn it off - it won't let me! (I can switch setting for reCAPTCHA to "no/off" from "yes/on," but unfortunately the toggle won't let me click "reset/enter.")

Yes... I've read the techno-babble via Google help... and elsewhere.

No... the techno-babble provides no help... no solution.

Anyone who can help me out... feel free to post!

Hopefully it'll just go away on it's own. Apparently it's a pretty widespread annoyance.
