Thread Editing

[Bill]

these stories appear in all sorts of places when it originally comes out. many sites only hold their articles for a limited time. so i try to edit those posts with an inactive link, and put in an active link with a similar story. so if you see a thread that seems to have changed or that the thread date does not match the story date, you will know that i probably edited it.

if possible, before submitting a link, check to see that the site you are on - keeps its stories.

sites such as msnbc are required to delete their posts after 2 weeks. so instead of posting a news site, try to find the same article in the science journal from which it originated.
