New version of MT + comment goodness

Well, another reason I haven't posted in a while (other than not knowing how to tell everyone that I got sh**canned) is because I wanted to update my blog to MySQL from a flat file database[0] so that I could install MT-close. Installing that should help prevent a lot of comment spam on my blog.

[0] If you could call a flat file a database.

So, did you actually get it running with mysql on the backend?

Also, how do you supposed the data for any other database is stored? Somewhere along the line, I'm sure it's just a big flat file. (:

Big flat files with fancy indexing schemes, that's all databases are. Unless maybe you're on a mainframe. Or you have some peculiar database structure that uses your filesystem for records and/or tables. But even then...
