  2. I thought you deleted a comment I left a few months ago, even though it was in agreement with you. Maybe I was mistaken. But although I quit commenting, I still read your page. It was no big deal.

  3. (I thought maybe it got deleted because I used a fake email address. Well, this one’s real…)

  4. Kudos for being big enough to admit being wrong. That’s very laudable.

    Someone else saying they’ve seen a comment deleted makes me STRONGLY suspect a bug.

  5. I haven’t used MT in some time, but I once had a few comments disappear. The server briefly went down and the backup of the data somehow didn’t include those comments.

    (As for MT removing <S> and <I> tags from comments, evidently it’s a feature, not a bug, in the “Sanitize” module)

    Thanks for the email.

  6. Nobody’s going to be reading this now, but I just got spammed at the email address I used here. I’m sure the “spam-protect” is on to foil the bots, so [email protected] must’ve lifted my email address some other way.
