  Cool.  I need to put in some more work on seeing whether or not I can do a
full upgrade, no doubt.  Goddamn OBSD.

  Yeah, that sounds like it'd be more processing time than it's worth, for what
is likely just an 'impressive stat' on the page.  Anyway, I just figured the
deleted message showing the topic would probably bit a little bit of a privacy
issue, as somebody could write something that they later recant on for privacy
issues or something; no sense in getting it pointlessly indexed by the google
spiders and all.  :)
  Best wishes.
