bigtexpilot,
I got a e-mail from Larry Toigo (system administrator?) that they were deleting inactive users (clogging up the system, I guess) and you have to reregister like you did to originally get into the forum. Haven't tried it myself, my New Years Resolution was to stay away from there. (The stress of too many futile arguments with JO was taking its toll on me and my family.) Good luck!

P.S. Any interesting news (700/900's, contract negotiations, etc.) posted here wouldn't apply to my self-imposed ban.
