    It seems the "Notify Me" function isn't working. I seem to recall seeing a similar complaint at the Crossword Fiend or some other site recently.

    1. @ r.alph, No email notification for your comment. I think the Notify Me check updates are not persistent, not updating the back end. This also seems to apply to turning off comment notifications for older posts. I saw a comment on Google help created 4 days ago that implies this function is broken.
