 * Hey,
 * My blog is [http://www.verbality.net/blog](http://www.verbality.net/blog). When
   trying to add a comment this is an error I get.
 * Warning: comments_template(/home/verbalit/public_html/blog/wp-content/themes/
   default/comments.php) [function.comments-template]: failed to open stream: No
   such file or directory in /home/verbalit/public_html/blog/wp-includes/comment-
   template.php on line 300
 * Warning: comments_template(/home/verbalit/public_html/blog/wp-content/themes/
   default/comments.php) [function.comments-template]: failed to open stream: No
   such file or directory in /home/verbalit/public_html/blog/wp-includes/comment-
   template.php on line 300
 * Fatal error: comments_template() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/
   home/verbalit/public_html/blog/wp-content/themes/default/comments.php’ (include_path
   =’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/verbalit/public_html/blog/wp-includes/
   comment-template.php on line 300
 * Any idea’s why this would happen? I am new to this and am using a template I 
   found online.
