I'm still having issues with respect to being able to make comments.
And, I'm still trying to correct the matter. This evening, in the interim, I found a work-around that allowed me to leave some comments. The trick was to remove the registration requirement for leaving comments to the blog. The problem with this is that, when I make this change, I have to "rebuild" every page of this site - and that takes around 10 to 15 minutes to run. And, once the requirement is lifted, then the spam programs start running through the entries like wildfire...leaving spam all over the place (which I then have to go and clean-up, one by one). Further, to prevent the spam comments from becoming a monster number, I have to restore the registration requirement when I'm done commenting - and then "rebuild" the entire blog again...which again takes 10 to 15 minutes.
That's too much work and time just to be able to leave some comments. So, I've decided to stop with the work-around and I will not be leaving comments to entries until I can do it the "normal" way. Therefore, if you make a comment and you are expecting me to answer a question, or defend a statement, etc., and you see nothing from me...it's not because I don't want to address you - it's because making comments, for me, now, is like jumping through hoops. Lots of hoops.
Hopefully, I can get this fixed soon. Until then, I'm on radio silence outside of the actual entries that I post here.
