  Finally I figured out how I would reconcile having Snor comments and Blogger comments. Since I'd started out with Snor comments I didn't want to republish my entire blog thereby losing those old comments.
Reading C's blog gave me the answer. Why not just publish two means of commenting? Snor or Blogger? So when I republished my entire blog with the Snor snippet in the template the old comments would still remain. So now you have a choice to post blogger comments or Snor comments. I know Jenn prefers Snor comments since she won't have to register to use blogger to post non-anonymous comments. She can just use the Snor form. So where it says "other comments", those are also known as Snor Comments.
Snor being the name of the script I used to put them together. I'm just happy I don't have to delicately republish only the index page, and I can now have all my pages looks the same. I'm sure you don't care but it makes a world of difference to me!
