I notice that his older post get obliterated. Circular buffer?Indeed! What proof do we have that the forums can store more than 32767 posts per member?If a post disappears in a thread and no one is reading it, did it make a sound? (P.S. I can't tell if your post is from 2013, 1913, 1813, ....... Have we learned nothing?!?!?!)

From tri-spirals the posts shall fly,whilst the crab sits and mutters why,and Escher's circle can but spy.
