The Lair of the Emerald Serpent

There's Izzie reading all the stories about how the evil live journal goblins are trying to airbrush history by eliminating all traces of deleted accounts - not just the entries in their own personal journals but anywhere and everywhere the 'disapparated' have left calling cards. So lots of communities have big black holes and gaps in conversations
This has apparently happened even when folks have ticked the boxes requesting their legacy on other journals and communities to be left untouched in the same miraculous way that automatic payments keep getting turned back on.
So when Izzie heard that the comments hadn't really gone but were merely hiding under invisibility cloaks along with all those subject lines in comments, decides to do an LJ comments only import once the drama had died down

Silly serpent. Should have left well enough alone. Was under the impression that the importer would recognize cross posted entries. But it didn't. So now every entry since May 2009 now has a doppelganger but none of the LJ comments came over which was the whole point of the exercise in the first place
Did try zapping one of them only to discover that having not turned off the cross posting option, its original over in LJ land also got nuked. Can always restore its twin over in LJ land with an entry edit on this side but will save that for later

So Izzie will leave the tweeking for the moment. Just so long as the terrible twins don't go crawling all over our friends pages it should only be a minor inconvenience
