that's a damn good question... off the top of my head:

- list 10 latest comments, offer a page with the rest... the number is
variable, and if the total comments is perhaps 12, keep it all on the
same page...

- a separate comment page?

- just accept it?

either way, it's worth exploring sooner rather than later...
