    You never know what sort of reference material is in some of the old threads. You would literally have to go through each individual thread and decide if there was any useful info in it before deleting. Just a thought...

    Ive found using the search option, Old posts from back to 2009 has helped me into looking for what was needed.. I agree someone would have to take the time to do it all, but how would you know what is useful or is not? Somethings could be completely useless to one but very useful to the next one.. just a thought!

    Gotta keep the old posts. There's way too much info in there. One day JT's posts will be really old and it has a bunch of excellent info them. Not only that, Tem lives on in the archives of FBBO.

    OK, who put the magnet under my moral compass?


    Isaac Asimov once said, "Individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as ever to the blinded critics and philosophers of today, but the core of science fiction, its essence, has become crucial to our salvation, if we are to be saved at all."
