Houston, we have a problem….
I have been adding content to this website since 2003, there are litterally thousands of posts. Over the years the site has been redisigned and migrated. It has been reformatted and rebuilt. Some of that work has caused blog posts, POTDs, Sales Posts etc to break. With so many posts it is a mamoth task to solve all the problems. Instead of either deleting all the affected posts or having pages with broken links, I have gathered them all here in a graveyard of old posts where they can still be searched and I can occasionally edit them, solve the problems and restore them to where they belong.
