===Captcha help for Mac OS X===
Those running Mac OS X (Darwin Unix) will find that the Captcha prompt given to create an account, namely:
date -u +%F | sha1sum | head -c8; echo
will not execute correctly. Those less familiar with Unix/Linux commands may be stumped as to how to proceed.

The reason for this is that Mac does not have the <code>sha1sum</code> command; instead, use <code>openssl sha1</code>, like so:
date -u +%F | openssl sha1 | head -c8; echo
