I awoke this morning to discover that all of the comments on this blog are missing. I don’t know why or how, but I’m hoping they can be retrieved. As I’m sure you’ll agree, the discussion that takes place in the comments is often as useful as the posts themselves, sometimes more so. More later when I know more.
UPDATE: The comments are back, thanks to my son-in-law Mark, who reminded me that the same thing happened almost exactly three years ago. So all he had to do was to remember what he did then, and do it again, and it worked! I wonder if it has anything to do with the autumnal equinox?
If by chance you tried to leave a comment while the system for handling them was down and it never showed up, please try again.

Steve, as of 1:30 EST, the comments appear on Mystery File. At least I can see them.

Yes, thank goodness for backups. I’d hate to see all the work lost that’s been put into this blog by those who have left comments here.
