WordPress 3.0 has apparently developed a bug where it will periodically close commenting on every post on the site.

This apparently happened within the last 48 hours here on the Alexandrian. I don’t notice because I’m logged in as an administrator (and can, therefore, post normally even to posts where comments have been closed). I was getting a little bit bummed out when nobody had anything interesting to say about the last few posts, but I got downright suspicious when even the spambots stopped frequenting the site.

So if you’ve had something you’ve been wanting to say, I apologize for the momentary outage. If you happen to spot this in the future, please take a second and toss me an e-mail so that I can fix it ASAP.
