Starting a new thread to ask a question that's already been asked doesn't make sense, unless you have reason to believe that the answers have changed.
Starting a new thread to rant about something that's frequently ranted about is a wee bit selfish.
Abusing minimum-wage retail workers who are only doing their job is the act of a bully.
Shopping at Wal-Mart is
cutting your own throat.
We should archive the entire forum.
Old threads are not worth conversing about. New threads have a 95% probability of having been discussed before.
There is no logical choice save for searching those archives. The only forums that shall remain open are: Foo, for casual chatting and Road Bike Racing, for new race results. Any Commuting threads that are about anything other than "first commutes" will be deleted. Only first commutes are original by definition.
