[racket] scribble/lp: comments stripped, how to stop?

I think that the intention with literate programming is that you don't
really want to use comments in the chunks. Instead, you can actually
write what would be comments in the running text that gets produced
when you render the document with Scribble (and dropped when
evaluated).

If that's not making sense, maybe you could supply a little example to
help clarify?

Thanks,
Robby
