General discussion

Not possible to open thread.

I am aware of the fact that there was a lot of "heat" in the thread that I started here. But I wonder why it is impossible to open it since there is no "lock" on it and it is not deleted...

Please let me know either here or through email.

Thank you.

It doesn't open! I copied the link to the thread and it does not work.

At the second page of Speakeasy there is a thread called Fidel Castro turns 80 and is doing fine.

It's doing the same thing for me under multiple usernames. I was able to post a reply, which bumped it to the top, indicating it's still there, but I still cannot read any of the posts, including my own. Hopefully the engineers will be able to look into it.
