Fair enough. In this case, they did seem a bit different and, as you note, there were some important comments in the killed thread.


If the stories had really been the same we would have merged the threads and left a "comments moved to..." post in the other one. But I was worried that the delta was a bit too great to deprive those comments of their original context. That particular dilemma doesn't come up all that often, which is good because we don't have a good solution to it.
