We thought the redesign was a good idea. You didn't. So we've changed it back, and kept the comments.

Now we need your help. We need to let those who may have left over our design changes to get the message we're back and Raw as ever. Many of our readers seemed to be so vexed by the changes, they've unbookmarked us -- and we never intended to make any changes that we thought weren't for the good of the site. While we thought the new design helped us look more professional, and increased the site's ease of use -- we erred. I get the general impression that a lot of readers thought we got bought out by, say, the Washington Post.

So we've brought back the grittier design and revitalized the banner headlines. I was away this weekend and we'll have some sizzling exclusives later this week and next week as we get back into the groove. But we need you to tell your friends and colleagues that we've listened to the voice of reason -- our readers -- and changed back, with comments, for the better.

Welcome back. ;)

did they remove the comments option? If so, I'm glad it's back.

I hope they didn't waste too much money on it if they aren't going to use it. When I saw it I thought it would help garner them more legitimacy among prospective new readers. IMHO.
