Is there currently a way to have the blog always display the comments?  Presently, there is just a link that says "View comments", and the user has to click that for all the comments to display.  I would like it to default to showing all comments when the user (anonymous or not) comes to the page.  Is there currently a setting or something that can turn this on ?

Thanks.

hmmm, I see your point -- number of comments per page, sort order, etc. the list of comment options could get pretty long.  I guess what I was expecting was that all comments would simply be listed (just like they are after you've click "View Comments".

What I would like is a page that simply has a small "post" from me, and the comments are the central focus of the page.  I did not want a "forum" style, because I do not necessarily want the users responding to each other, just to my post.  And I did not want the user to have to click through multiple levels of navigation to get there.  So far, the closest I've gotten to achieving this is having a blog with a single post that has comments enabled.  Is there perhaps another type of module better suited to this?
