  1. I wrote on a prev day’s post that there does not seem to be an entry point to creating comments on this website other than to click on a day that already has comments? Now I see you have to go ‘in’ to the day’s post.

    The comment for that day is that your link for Thoughts on EF vs NHibernate (Rob Conery) is busted.

  2. That link is ok now – apparently rob took down the orig post and has the revision online now.
