I even searched the page (using firefox search feature) and there is not a single mention of ReCAPTCHA in the article you linked to.

Why would you link to an article claiming it mentioned ReCaptcha when in fact it does not? There is a difference between captcha and ReCaptcha.

If you have proof supporting that ReCaptcha (not captcha) has been cracked, please post a link. But make sure that the article does in fact mention ReCaptcha.
Well, lets not split hairs here. Does ReCAPTCHA claim to be any more secure then any other CAPTCHA? Because all I've ever seen it claim as it's sole difference was it helped to digitize literature. Not a whole lot of claims on it's superior security.

Either way, what are you disagreeing with me with? We had a huge number of discussion here in October when several people's boards were suddenly getting deluged with spam. Several people pointing out ReCAPTCHA's flaws. So I'm not sure if you're disagreeing with that, or disagreeing with my point that security questions are much harder for bots to guess.
