As The Herald News becomes savier with new media, such as these blogs, we run into the occasional bumps in the road.
A somewhat consistent one seems to be people having trouble posting blog comments. This is rather unfortunate since I have been soliciting comments on the blog I wrote a few days ago on John Swezy's passing.
It seems many have tried to post their memories of John and they are not coming through for my approval. Supposedly the problem is that people are either leaving out required information such as an e-mail address or are incorrectly typing the letters the blog asks you to copy before it posts.
As frustrating as this is, I'm asking you all to please try posting again. Before you go to hit "post" try copying your text first. You can simply highlight the text and right click and select copy. Then when you post if you are told there is an error please just e-mail me your copied comments and I will post your comments.
My e-mail is cchapman@scn1.com.
Again I apologize for the trouble, but truly appreciate you all continuing to read and your attempts to comment.
