I was planning to announce this fact when the archives search came back up; but since you asked...

Many of those were silently reactivated a few days ago. There are still about 40-50,000 articles that have some form of "la times, angeles times, wa post" in them, and they are unavailable until they can be further reviewed. We'll probably take volunteers to review 20-50 at a time for possible copyrighted material. The reason they were pulled in the first place is because of possible LA Times/Wash Post content.

Not having top and last is extremely hard when you're on web tv and want to refresh the thread. With the old style, just refresh and push last, then you see the new reply. With the new style, refresh and you have to go through all the replies to see one new reply. Repeat to see the next new reply.

Isn't it against Federal law to discriminate a thread due to its' age?

I miss archive function also.
