Comments on the BOOT posts older than 14 days on pause cause of spam attack

Sorry to all but have had to limit comments on posts older than 14 days due to a massive spam attacked. Was hit with a spam comment every few seconds. More than 100 before I caught it and locked comments. Blogger only allows for comment deletion one and a time so very annoying to wipe off the spam mess. Will hopefully be able to fully turn comments back on soon.
