SOS

For some reason, the list of recent comments to this blog has disappeared from the right hand column. Does anyone have a clue how I can make it come back? I need it, because people sometimes add a comment to a blog several days afterward, and I cannot keep track of that without the list. Am I the only person who is totally mystified by these happenstances? Back when I was a boy, we just took up a stylus and a clay tablet and etched our thoughts into it. A quick trip to the baking oven, and it was set for at least two thousand years. Then parchment came along and screwed things up.
