The code, as is, attempts to generate 10 random comments (Once I get this working, I'll change that number to 1,000,000,000,000 hahah) using random strings for the 3 fields that need to be filled out in a comment, author, email and comment. Those correspond to 3 names of input elements inside a
element with action wp-comments-post.php and method post.
So the crucial parts of the code are where I try to use a cURL object to issue post requests:

Any help greatly appreciated.
