How Can I Reply to Articles on the Insights Blog?

In summary, the Insights Blog allows for replies and commentary at the bottom, but only members of the Physics Forums can do so. The "Become a Member!" link on the right margin does not currently work, and all articles are located on the same domain as the Physics Forums. There is a broken bridge in terms of privileges and accounts, which will be fixed in about a month. In the meantime, comments can be made on the forum thread provided at the end of the article.

Articles at the Insights Blog appear to allow replies and commentary at the very bottom. However, it appears my login at the Physics Forums is an insufficient privilege to reply to articles at Insights Blog. At the right margin there there is a link with the title "Become a Member!" However, when I click this link, it leads nowhere, only redirects me back to the top of the site. All the articles appear to be located on the same domain name as the Physics Forums, (www.physicsforums.com/insights)

I'm a bit confused about the mechanics of privileges and accounts and how those work here.

It's a broken bridge at the moment. It should be fixed in a month or so. Use the forum thread linked to at the end of the article to comment. Thanks for your patience!

Just to be clear, the link Greg means appears as a DISCUSS IN THE COMMMUNiTY button.
