The Mystery Of The Missing Comments

I had some time and was going to respond to some comments to my last post and saw that three of them had disappeared. Blogger? Hacked?

Anyway, wanted to say that I always appreciate comments as long as they are thoughtful. I have a limited amount of time, and even though I don't always get around to responding to comments that are left here, I always want to. Sometimes I simply can't think of anything meaningful to add or say in response, generally because I agree. Otherwise, it is a time issue. I take the time to read any comments left right away, but it may take me up to a couple of days to respond. After that, I figure it's too late. Please don't see this as indifference, it isn't. I am always grateful. I say this because I love to get responses when I take the time to comment elsewhere, though it's fine if I don't, which seems to be the case about half the time. Also, I don't comment now near as much as I once did. Though I do try to read most of the blogs I follow on "reader". I have about 40 good blogs there.

Sorry for the missing comments. I have no idea what happened to them, though I know it didn't just happen here. It also happened on my other blog as well.

Blogger was down all day yesterday, and most of this morning. I had some comments also disappear. But even worse, some of the blogs I visit lost the posts they did the last couple days.

So it was a blogger problem!

I thought as much. I hope they can get it fixed OK.

Yes blogger seemed to have a big problem. Makes me wonder why?!!!!

They said it was down for upgrades.

They said it was down for upgrades and that all new posts and comments from about 7:30am Wednesday were taken down in order to make the upgrades. The posts would re-appear after their upgrade was completed. I went in to my dashboard and re-posted my lost post, and I didn't find any comments at all. I've heard others say that if you have your comments emailed to you, you can access them at your email address.
