 * In the default theme, you will find it in comments.php on line 12 and in the 
   default source code for 2.7, it is also in wp-includes/post-template.php on line
   984

 * Does anyone know where to do this same thing in v2.8.2? I have looked in the 
   post-template.php file and cannot find it anywhere.
 * Thanks
