So, I noted that some folks couldn’t comment at an anti-gun piece. The article is here. The webmaster at Cornell informed me that they were just in moderation. The author of the piece commented here. And then, in a bit of irony, wordpress decided that the author’s comments were spam. I have recovered all that I have found and promoted his status here so he should not have any more issues commenting here.
Update: Seems Cornell is different than Cornell Daily Sun. See comments.

So I wasn’t insane. At least regarding that.

“About The Cornell Daily Sun
Founded in 1880, The Cornell Daily Sun, one of the nation’s oldest daily college newspapers and one of the strongest organizations on campus, is and always has been completely independent from Cornell University. The newspaper serves the Cornell campus and its surrounding community in Ithaca, New York.The Sun is entirely student-run, publishing Monday through Friday during the academic year, with special Graduation and Freshman issues during the summer. In the 127 years that The Sun has been publishing, some famous names have graced its pages, including Editors-in-Chief E.B.White ’21 and Dick Schaap ’55; Associate Editor Kurt Vonnegut ’44; Business Manager Oscar Mayer ’34; and business board member Frank Gannett 1898. In 1912, The Sun became the first collegiate member of the Associated Press. ”
Cornell Sun is not part of Cornell University. Not that I agree with them dicking with comments, but “The webmaster at Cornell” is someone other than the kid running the Cornell Sun’s website.
