Limpet the post you shifted to tech links to some dodgy help site
What sort of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

I didn't check the site before but I have now & it looks legitimate. Could be wrong though.

Looks like a 3rd party help site.
Their home page looks fine, except for all the damn pop-ups..

I don't think we need this bleedin' Eileen's Lunge stuff all over again.

Contingency plans have been in place since late September (about 5 minutes after the KB went read only) and Kerz has already stated that he would post links to same in the event of MozZ actually closing. No further action is required.

I just feel that knowing that Kerz is in 'an impulsive mood', that on that one thread, and only that thread, that it would be a good idea for him not to lose the will to live by reading a thread that is like a 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' inmate thread.

All 'Sticky' threads attract that type of post and if people want to post their 'Me too!' or 'I stand by my point!' or short term memory loss stuff on other threads, fine. Just not on that one.

I really don't know why the mods here are so tardy in grasping the concept and importance of keeping that one thread clean of dross.
