 * using theme 2010 (1.3) I forgot to upload my akismet and left the ” Allow link
   notifications from other blogs (pingbacks and trackbacks) ” box checked then 
   went away to allow .rss feed to do all the work on this site. returning yesterday
   I found 57,230 pingback links on the site. I uploaded the key and unchecked the
   box, but how do I modify the theme to not show the 57,230 comments/pingbacks 
   on the site?
