Old posts
I'm sorry about that. The old software is Perl and transferring it would put all posts in one forum... could crash the site. How did you find the new board? The switch wasn't supposed to be made for another 24 hrs.

Looks like the people will be home early, so better start dinner!!

The old posts would have really sent the place into a tizzy, and this is the best way I figured I could get it switched.
More comming soon!!

This is certainly more complicated than I expected, but I suppose it's like everything else- once you get used to it it's fine. It appears that us dregs is going to be among the first to jump in.
