We may not care, I don't, overly, (not my fpp) but since it being down seemed to be the deletion reason, figured I'd heads-up.

So wait, it was killed, and now it's back walking around among the living threads?

So... it's a zombie thread?

/Gets shotgun.

Hmnm, or it could be a vampire thread...

/Grabs stake

And as long as we are dealing with the pantheon of the Undead, there is a possibility of it being a werewolf or a Frankenstein's monster.

/Grabs silver and a torch

Now where is it?

/Falls over from carrying too much weight.

What ever happened to that lawsuit surrounding the erroneous comma that was supposedly going to cost Rogers millions?

What other mefi threads would people like to see resurrected and/or followed-up-on?

Since bring it back to life sort of killed the deletion reason:

About the time the thread was posted, the linked site went all Connection Refused. Took it down with a reason along the lines of "let's see if the site comes back". It did.

Hi there

Thanks for this.

Probably the servers are not able to withstand the high amounts of traffic generated by the Savage Lover referral, so posting the link on Metafilter probably won't help things much.

So perhaps the sex survey post should rest in peace rather than coming back as a zombie.

But I see it's back up, so if Blue Meifites are happy...

Gods, jessamyn. It took me a moment to get that. You are a sick, sick woman, and we love you for it.
