I need to take some time to find a good plugin and get this site setup so that spam comments are reduced — I am getting upwards of 10 spam comments a day at this point — but until then I am shutting them all off.  Currently I don’t even look through the comments in the moderation queue so I don’t want someone to post a comment and then it get buried in the spam noise.  So, if you have commented in the last few months, and it never showed up…this is likely why.
