From the very beginning, I have set this blog up in such a way that new comments, waiting to be published, would be sent to my personal email account, from which I would review and publish them. Given that I have continued to get such emails on a regular basis, I have never had any reason to suspect there was a problem.
Yet it seems there was.
Upon checking the section of this blog that stores comments waiting to be published, (something I thought I had little reason to do), I found no less than four comments waiting for my approval; some have been there since June!
I went ahead and published them all, for what that may be worth. My apologies to anyone who left such "lost comments". I will now make an effort to check the comment publication cue on a regular basis, for those comments that escape my email, for some reason.
