Could you one week later delete "comments" without sign off?

  I was one of 2 coders that worked there, but we did different things. We were supposed to do "code reviews", monthly with each other. We did, but we usually went to a Denny's (open 24 hours) and literally hung out there for 15 hours, ate 3 times, etc and reviewed things. We cared about code quality and not having to band-aid. We had a saying: "Comment in a fix....". This is our way of saying to each other that we needed to re-write code and to get around "red tape" we would comment out and replace the code. So if comments confused things, we removed them, with a comment that previous comments "were confusing" or "no longer applied" :-)
