When it says No Comment, that is Word Press's way of letting a reader know that no one has made a comment yet. I too think they could have worded it a little better...but unfortunately we don't have control over that. But once a comment is made, then it will say "1 comment" or "4 comments" etc. and the reader knows that they can click there and read what others have said. I am glad to see that you were able to successfully make a comment here. I appreciate your willingness to learn the technology and now that you know the procedure I hope we see more input from you in the future...and perhaps you can teach someone else what you have learned too! :) Cheryl Jacobs, SDSU Extension Blog Administrator Susan,

The instructions given to me for making a comment were to go the bottom of the article and click on "No Comment." If I had not had someone to talk me through the process, I would never have thought to click on "No Comment." Why even have that choice? If a reader has no comment, why the necessity for saying so? And certainly why should I have to click on "No Comment" in order to make a comment? I realize most other users are more facile in using the internet, but this process seems unnecessarily confusing.
