Has the strike been settled?

For some reason, my computer updated last night and it pulled up every
post since 2003. All 1,336,010 of them.

Many familiar names, many, sadly, have gone away for one reason or
another. Dog3, Wayne Boatright, Jack Schidt, Jack Sloan

problem? In any case, he's a live and well (eating well too) and
posting on Facebook.
