From the conversion,I found 22 posts, which ended up not being converted,
however, we have about 70 thousand or so,that were,so
I was thinking the ratio was good,no?
additionally, I was hoping they might be resurrected easily by our
vast an unpaid research department?
semi-recent posts: #1
use of modern technology might make it seem new but the basic tech has been around for ages.
A little "standing on the shoulders" is more the thought here.

In other words, neither endorsed program nor bankrolled project simply founded upon lengthy research must needs include exhaustive credits & laborious footnoting when singular, realistic goals count as primary object rather than just academic glory.||03/02/08 at 15:02:37|bandito

Plagiarism is good, but would only apply if the credit was taken knowing of the earlier discovery, which is not the premise of this discussion. The Nobel Committee probably has a word for it - claims of origin for nearly all good inventions seem to be questionable, Alexander Graham Bell being the most recent to be unfrocked.
If the original inventor had patented the idea, the pretender would be patently incorrect !||03/02/08 at 07:26:26|douglang

At any rate, patent suits can nonetheless be much too easy to avoid, especially when instrumental dynamics & universal laws of applied physics remain exclusively within the generic domain of all to purvey. Thus industry specialists have only to make a few slight variations here & there, and voila you get still another newly designed product—really places one incredible burden upon the US patent office!||03/06/08 at 12:07:26|bandito

Re: How about this one:|douglang|douglang@batelco.com.bh|03/11/08 at 17:21:38|douglang|xx|0|82.194.62.230|In our contemporary debate on the armless nonplus, we have perhaps laid claim to a variation on nomenclature, giving names to entities based on the number of appendages which they either already have, never had, or had and lost, then grew back - which is hereby designated "numberclature".
Is this a false claim to a previous attribution, or a pelagicarist out of his depth ?
