The problem with reviving old threads is that an individual's knowledge, attitudes - whatever - may have significantly changed in those intervening years, and it may be unfair to revive an old thread representing those outdated thoughts.
Of course, this does not apply to yours truly, who has never changed opinions or knowledge level over 10 years!!
I think if someone revives an old thread, the thread should display a red flag of some sort within the revived thread - i.e., this thread is over 6 months old, or displaying the actual age prominently within the text.
