Perhaps you could consider a formula for eliminating the more obvious posts which are no longer of interest.

Also consider deleting Members who haven't made a post within the past 6 (?) months. They can always re-join. :huh:

The lack of responses is perhaps a measure of the limited readership/membership and nothing more. Interest in string theory and cosmology may have ended in here, but not among the people I see almost daily, as an example.
I wonder if 2 years later this topic has any particular relevance?

How's the webserver situation going these days Fraser? You must be using a heck of a lot more than that given the expansion of the site over the past 2 years, although with the forum now a dual-managed operation in-a-sense I suppose that probably frees up a certain amount of space?
