Good Morning,

Good news for anyone wanting to comment on any of my blog posts. The registration/log in program has been tweaked so that those who want to post a comment may do so. Visitors who want to just read already posted comments, but not post a comment, need only hit the "comment" or "read more" buttons. There is no need to log in to read the blog and previously posted comments.

If, however, you wish to say something about what I, or previous commentators, have written, you need to register and then log in.

1. Register a user name and password. Use these anytime you wish to log in. If you want to comment on more than one post, you will need to log in to add a comment for each post you have something to say about. A "log in"  link is found at the bottom of each of my posts.

2. After logging in. A "comment" window will pop up. Enter your comment. Then scroll to the bottom of the page and hit the "Save"  button. When you are done, hit the "log out" button at the top right of the page. There is also an edit button so you can change your post if you want.

3. Your comment will not show up instantaneously. As a safeguard against spam, I receive an email each time someone enters a comment. I have to click on a "publish comment/deny publication" link. When I hit the "print comment" button your comment will appear below the blog post. I try to check the blog several times a day, but blogging isn't my day job. So please be patient.

4. Approved comments don't automatically appear on the page after approval. There is a "comments posted" counter at the left of the page (the green circle). If there is any number other than a zero in that space, someone has posted a comment. Click on the "comments" button, or the "read more" link and all comments posted on that particular blog entry will show up.

Thanks for your patience.
