My apologies to those of you who have been leaving comments and then finding that they seem to disappear.
The good news is that I am seeing them, and I will plan on posting them. However, since some of them are controversial (my favorite kind), I want to get the problem fixed so that everyone has a fair chance to respond.
I have spent hours trying to fix the problem in Livejournal, my blogging host, and I can not seem to resolve it. All the settings suggest that your comments should be displayed the moment you submit them. Note that I had not changed anything in recent months that would have changed the comment feature. About six months ago I selected the CAPTCHA spam filter for anonymous comments, to slow down the spam, but your comments were still getting posted just fine after making that change.
I made my first posts on Livejournal exactly five years ago today. I was prolific that day, making these three entries on a busy Monday, June 12, 2006.
I’m planning many more years of blogging, but I’m going to switch my blogging host to wordpress. For those of you who get access to my journal via my website www.randycorman.com, the change will be fairly transparent. For those of you who read my blog via livejournal, I want to encourage you to find me at my www.randycorman.com website.
The switchover may take a few days. Fortunately, my son Andy is brilliant at things like this, and he will help me get it set up.
I have several topics I want to blog about, so please keep checking back to my website. This promises to be an interesting election season, and there are lots of interesting things going on in government right now.
I’ll write again soon!
Thanks, Randy
Fun looking back at our first entries. I didn’t realize the were so long ago!
