Do what you've got to do I suppose
However, even though my resto thread is post-May 2004, it'd be a REAL shame to lose the others, like Tony's for example. That thread is possibly the best one on PassionFord, so it needs to be saved in some sort of format, or copied and reposted? Same must surely apply for the techincal discussion essay threads?
Have we got a time when this deletion will occur?
