 * Hi there, I have used the following code snippet in my functions.php to modify
   the text of the “Leave a Comment” area in the post info area:
 *     ```
       //* Modify the comment link text in comments
       add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'sp_post_info_filter' );
       function sp_post_info_filter( $post_info ) {
       	return '[post_comments zero="Please Leave Me a Comment" one="1 Comment" more="% Comments"]';
       ```
   
 * Which works UNTIL I activate Genesis Simple Edits, then the [post_comments] reverts
   back to the default “Leave a Comment” text.
 * I like GSE and want to use it but would like to know how I can customize the 
   Leave a Comment link and keep GSE intact.
 * Thanks!
