Me:
Dear frustrated comment writer (Mr. D24),

From the attachment that I have sent you, you can see there are a few options just below the comments text box. You can choose to either post with your blogger/google ID, Open ID, name/URL or anonymous. Just select Open ID or name/URL to put your own fancy name, if you do not have a blogger/google ID.

Feel free to let me know if you still cannot find the radio buttons...

Your friendly helpdesk
K Rivers.

Mr.MyHump:
Dear Helpdesk,

I do not see any difficulty in leaving comments in your blog. I have, in fact, left many comments in your blog to show my support for your job well done, especially when your friends were in trouble and all you can do is to take pictures and laugh (no pun intended). However, I am not surprise that other users might have problem using the comments function as we have noticed that different users behave differently. I remembered once when a user called us up to complaint to us why he can't access YouTube via our Proxy server. Ironic, isn't it? Especially when they already signed the rules and regulation form stating that Internet surfing is for official use only. Of course, the most famous joke was someone use the CDRom drive to hold his Starbuck coffee. So, in short I don't blame this particular user for not able to successfully create a comment in your blog. Just another typical users from our community, unfortunately from IT background too... sigh...:(

regards,
Mr.MyHump

Perhaps the above may be a little dry for non-IT people but it's a big joke for us, the mundane IT geeks. Hahaha... It's like an accountant asking what's debit and credit on a T-account, or a Sales personnel asking what's a customer, or a cashier asking if he should accept cash as payment...

Oh well, Happy Programmer Day anyway.. hahaha

P/s FYI, Programmer's day is a whimsical "holiday" on the 256th day of the year celebrated mostly by computer programmers (reason: 256 = 2 to the power of 8 = the number of values representable in a byte of data). Traditions include drinking, behaving silly, coding silly programs, mini computer games, playing with old computers, etc. Programmer's day usually falls on September 13th; on leap years, it is September 12th.
