Due to the enormous amount of spam, I was forced to change comment systems. I manually submitted everyone's previous comments. I made fake accounts for each person. If you care to edit your comment, your email is FIRSTNAME@chuckfata.com and your password is @chuckfata.com. This comment system also allows you to sign in using Facebook, Twitter, or Google. If you do not have any of those accounts, it allows you to make a Disqus account. Just click on the “JOIN THE DISCUSSION” box and all the login options will appear. Sorry for the change, but the spam was not manageable the other way.
