I was column surfing and noticed...: If you go to the columns section through the link at the top of the front page, or the "has written X columns" link of a member profile, there are only links to the columns and no links to the comments. The only way I know to get to the comments is to note the date of the column and then go through the archives. Can a comments link be added to make navigation easier?
