 * Or in ‘wp-comments.php’ edit the line that controls it too:
    ` <textarea name
   ="comment" id="comment" cols="70" rows="10" tabindex="4"></textarea>`

 * Well I think that is a bit hit and miss. In the CSS default it is styled with
   a width of 100%. And I am not convinced that all the names / titles and the other
   code is all in line. Can’t be sure. But it drove me nuts. Just my 2c.
