As for the diminished commenting, I'm guessing that others have had the same difficulties that I'd had with signing-in in the past (I've been reading this blog from the get-go and could *never* get it to work), and have decided not to bother. I finally decided to give it another chance today, and 15 minutes later, it seems to be working.

Maybe an encouraging post along these lines will bring out some others from the woodwork??
