Got it as well today.  After a few hours of inactivity on my browser, I just went to my 'History' to re-access the CGC thread that I commented on, and it prompted me for the confirmation.  I wasn't asked to log out as well, which is more secure if they end my session after a few hours of inactivity, rather than confirming humanity. :goodvsevil:

If anyone is curious, those "click here if you're not a robot" buttons don't actually check for the click. They check for the movement toward the checkbox. Humans have to slide the mouse (or finger) toward the box in a way that's very "human". Computers would just alter the checkbox to "checked" in the code.

You can imagine the posts from some of the Golden Age aliens and robots: "Dear Sir - In 1950, this unit was one of a group from the Metallic Agency that modeled for your cover drawing of Weird Fantasy #6 and have yet to receive payment.  This unit's PayPal is...."
