Hamilton, the greatest political philosopher in the history of Quantitative Finance,posted one of his best responses ever (after hours and hours of research) toAaron's assertion that Harry V Jaffa did not write a key line in Barry Goldwater's1964 speech at the Republican Convention.My brilliant soliloquy's as well as the entire thread (which was of course on something related to Quant Fi) in General Forum have disappeared.In unrelated news, sex tips on Off Topic continue unabated.Sincerely,Breathless in Bogota.

H, we have an ongoing database problem causing threads to disappear mysteriously and randomly. As long as we have a back up we can replace them...but your thread (which I recall distinctly because it was On Topic!) may be too recent to have been backed up.The problem seems to be related to threads which have been viewed a large number of times...Yes, I know, I thought exactly the same thing, a popular Hammy thread? Surely some mistake!P

Thank goodness it was merely management incompetence and not aconspiracy. I had assumed that my allegation that Aaron had beenpunked had triggered a Catilinian conspiracy of bearded Financeprofs to silence and suppress my best work.
