Thanks! Yeah, I may have gotten sick of the inflexibility of the Amerifecta theme and found another to work for me. The only downside of my Picoclean one is that there’s no Widgetized footer, and the only included widgetized area in a single sidebar. Guess that’s the next thing I’ll have to figure out…

Josh, just gotta say you’re amazing! I was looking to solve this problem for myself and your fix did the trick!

I’m just now learning and, if I were to be honest, don’t even know anything about child themes. I assume that’s a theme that’s created from another theme, but with changes?
I pulled open the comments.php and looked through it (pasted below), but didn’t see anything recognizable (I was control Finding the word ‘feed’, for example.)
One thing I’ve been wondering in general is how to find where something is located within a theme when you want to remove it. Using Firefox’s editor, I can at least see what the code I need is sometimes, but not what file it’s in.
Still learning, like I said. ^_^ Sorry if I seem ignorant.

<?php // Do not delete these lines
	if ('comments.php' == basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']))
		die ('Please do not load this page directly. Thanks!');

	if (!empty($post->post_password)) { // if there's a password
		if ($_COOKIE['wp-postpass_' . COOKIEHASH] != $post->post_password) {  // and it doesn't match the cookie
			?>

			<p class="nocomments">This post is password protected. Enter the password to view comments.</p>

			<?php
			return;
		}
	}

	/* This variable is for alternating comment background */
	$oddcomment = 'class="alt" ';
