Almost all of the Yahoo posts are here, too, so we preserved all that knowledge. They're in their own board. Yahoo ArchiveAll the old photo albums were copied over, too.Enjoy!Michelle Quote Selected

If you use the little bar to the top right, you can select within topic, board, or all boards. All boards will also search the Yahoo archive.If you use the "search" option from the menu bar, it defaults to all boards, but you can expand that to select which boards to search. Select "advanced search" below the text box and then you can select the boards you want to searchThe Yahoo archive here has all* 40,000+ posts through late July 2010. There was very minor traffic on the actual Yahoo board at that point, 99 and 44/100ths percent was about ForeForums, so Steve didn't pull any later posts. I believe the Yahoo board was officially closed to posting in early to mid December 2010.* All posts with the exception of obvious duplicates that Steve found. Plus almost all have been properly threaded, all the "do you Yahoo?" and "sent from my Blackberry" trailers, and excess quotation, etc., stripped to make them easier to read/follow.Michelle Quote Selected

It is still there and can be accessed for its archives. Quote Selected
