Maybe their comment retrieval system is broken. I manually edited the link that I sent because when you click on their "view all" button, it puts the number of records that it is aware of here: "start=1&end=###records###" That effectively limits the query to this number of records. Since I assumed that more records would be added by the time people clicked the link, I changed this number to 2000. That's why all of the comments are displaying. I assume that this is because the method they use to calculate how many records result from the search is broken. It could also be a hack to only show certain records when you click 'all records.' Either way it's a poor design and should be changed.
