New comments system

Over the weekend we are introducing a new comments system.  It will be operational across ConHome by tomorrow night and is already operational on this front page.  By registering for a TypePad account your comments can, in future, be accompanied with a photo.  That photo could be your mugshot or anything you choose.  Others will be able to click on your name and access any biographical information that you attach to your profile.  Three other benefits of the new system include comment numbering, a simple facility to reply to others' comments and to delete your comment if you are unhappy with it... but this delete option only lasts a few minutes.  People will still be able to leave comments exactly as before if they do not want to register.  Please 'play' in the thread below!
