The same malaise appears to have afflicted old journal posts, too. As I said - it's no biggie, and most likely no current user of the site will really care. But, I figured I'd let you know, in case you weren't aware that some post-munching gremlin appears to have feasted on your older content.. Cheers, (The unimaginatively-named) dave_porter i remember you. :wave: I think the purge was intentional, though I am not entirely sure.. I am pretty sure it is not an accidental bug.

We're still here. Well, some of us. Anyhow I just wanted to say hi. Jump in if you need too. No need to bite the dust alone when you can chew the fat with some of the old cool fatheads. Wack a mole 24/7. What a world, right? A virtual open mic. :)
