  I don’t see a way for readers to comment on my home page (which is a static page.) How do I add that?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,
  You can enable and disable comments on free hosted WordPress.com blogs on this page > Settings > Discussion Discussion settings is where you set up defaults for comments.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/discussion-settings/

  You can override the default settings and enable or disable future comments on any individual post or page.

  Important Note: By default, new blogs on WordPress.com will have the Discussion hidden. You can reveal it by clicking on Screen Options http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options/ on the top right corner of your Admin page, and checking the box that says Discussion so the module is included. http://en.support.wordpress.com/modules/#list-of-modules
