Anonymous comments disabled

I imagine it was only a matter of time.

I am all for discourse on the blog-- you are welcome to disagree with me, and you can actually push me pretty far before I'll do something as drastic as deleting a comment.

But I'm not going to tolerate people slandering one another in the comments of my blog. I've disabled anonymous comments for this reason. I *love* comments and never want to deter any conversation, but I won't have my blog used to insult my friends.

One spoiled apple and whatnot...
