It looks like one other thing needs to be tweaked with the new site design.  When posting a comment to a story, there is still a field where the user can enter their location.  It appears this is now ignored, and the location specified in their profile is used instead (and is retroactive - I changed my location and it changed for my previous comments).  So it looks like the location field when posting comments needs to be removed.

Thanks, we will try and get that taken care of soon. This is the first site with registration we have launched, so a few things need to be tweaked. Thank you for bringing it to our attention.

I see that field has been removed, but just noticed another redundancy (sorry!).  There is still a checkbox for “Remember my personal information” that doesn’t appear to have any functionality. 

Does the site now require registration before posting?  If so the other fields, Name, Email and URL, are probably unused by the server as well.  I know the URL field has never been used for anything I could see (perhaps only moderators used that information).
