Comments Working!

Medawar's apologies to anyone who has tried, and failed, to post comments to this blog.

He foolishly stuck with the blogger defaults throughout, thinking this would be foolproof, and, of course, this produced comment forms that let one type long comments, then failed to send them anywhere for Medawar to moderate and publish them.

This has now been fixed, by selecting the "pop-up window" option on the comments page, which may be annoying for some, but which works, whereas the default, embedded option, does not work. And not for the reason advanced by blogger, neither.

Anyway, ladies, gentleman, comment at will, and once again, Medawar's profound apologies for having spent a fortnight waiting for comments that you may all have been busily typing.

Never, ever, trust a default setting without checking that it works!
