got a centos5.2 web/database server thats on a public coloc, its dmesg fills up with

I know thats because of random bogosity coming in from the internet, and I really don't care. can I suppress that from filling up the dmesg buffer so I can see more important things like scsi soft errors?
Don't you love some of the more "interesting" messages from the kernel?
I'm surprised they didn't use "Here be dragons"!
