On This Day in Blogging History for Aug 18th, Cory picked this BB post as the ten years ago featured post:
A thing of beauty, innit? Anyway, I was amused to see that the QuickTopic discussion link on this post from TEN YEARS AGO is… still active.

So you have a bunch of replies from like 2003 when it was published originally, a smattering from 2007-2008 (wtf?), a little bit of not so egregious spam mixed in, and now, new responses from here in 2013.
Anyway @frauenfelder I hope your TEN YEAR OLD SKIN SORE is better now. We’re all pulling for you over here!
… but more seriously, maybe someone at BB HQ should make all the old QuickTopic posts read only?
