Haloscan

It seemed a good idea at the time. Haloscan commenting has been added to this blog, with the unexpected result that all previous comments have been lost. If anyone knows how to retrieve them, please share it. I apologise to everyone who's taken the trouble to comment in the past.

I realise now I shouldn't have taken the lazy option of an automatic installation. It's possible to run haloscan side by side with blogger, as Antti Leppänen does on his excellent blog Hunjangûi karûch'im. Now why hadn't I bothered to ask myself why he did that?
