Well, as far as the captcha is concerned, I just started using

http://www.skipinput.com

in Safari on my Mac. So far it is working fine. So if it continues to work and 
will work on the website, it won't matter that the captcha is still there. But 
of course it is somewhat worrisome not to know until you get to the end of the 
process.

and the meditation of my heart
be acceptable to You, Lord,
my rock and my Redeemer.
