Gotcha. Thanks! I was wondering if there was something going on with that guy.

The last post in that thread is from 2010. So, I more than likely never even saw that thread. It was locked by an automated process.

If the thread is old, it is probably an automated lock I do on old threads. Because old threads mostly get posted to by spambots, I lock them.

I was doing a little research on a surgeon recommended in one of the posts today (Dr. Michael Olding re: breast implants) and found a number of threads in whcih he is mentioned but the one I picked to read is locked. What does that mean? Is there any significance? Someone in the thread accused the doctor of being the OP. Should I be discounting the recommendations in that thread, or is the lock unrelated to that accusation? Thanks.
