As you can see there is now a list of recent comments in the sidebar. This is a script supplied by HaloScan, which provides the commenting function itself, and it doesn't do exactly what I'd like–it doesn't indicate what post the comment is attached to. I don't think I can change it and am not 100% sure I'm going to keep the feature. I decided to try it because it seems to happen fairly often that someone leaves a comment on a post that's pretty far down on the page, and unless you were checking that post you wouldn't notice the comment. There is, for instance, a bit of discussion on the question about my statement, re Rod Dreher's move to Orthodoxy, that John Paul II considered Orthodoxy "part of the Church." Anyway, we'll see how this works out. Let me know if it's distracting–seems a little on the busy side to me.
