replying to user 'rms',

"all things" == Universe

I see that the entire thread has been deleted. why??????


At worst a bug. Can you at least give me the parent url?


I do not see the thread any more in my comments list. The entire thread has been deleted. Perhaps the programmer has also decided to become a censor?

"jawad?" had said that galaxies make him sad, then there was a conversation between randallsquared, rms and myself.

I last replied yesterday. I see it is deleted today.


Can you tell me something that will help me find some parent of this? Just give me the url of the nearest thing up the tree that isn't "deleted."

No one can delete a comment thread except me, and I never have. Possibly this is a bug, but probably not.


To help out, this is the comment in question:

on this thread:

However, everything looks fine. All the comments are right there from my view. I'm guessing EBKAC ;)


when you click on my user id and look at my comments you will not find that thread. Surprisingly, mattjaynes is able to view it.
