OK Mulder and the Smoking Gun trio (Skully would have known better
), you can move on to something that's an actual conspiracy now!
For some reason the word DROP doesn't work with the Web Wiz Forums version 7.92 software, which is what Lynx was using. Today Lynx updated to the newest version (version 9.xx) and you can now search for and easily find every post that has to do with drop outs, dropouts, dropped packets, dropping drawers, drop kicked, eye dropper and dropsy!
If you don't believe me go to
Ernest Hemingway Message Boards (they use Web Wiz 7.92) and do a search on DROP (no hits) and then ROP (lots of hits).
Now, unless the people who run this forum about Ernest Hemingway's life have some sinister motive to try to make people think no one has reported dropouts . . . I'd say that there may need to be some apologies posted here for what was a shocking and fascinating discovery but was just a Web Wiz programming bug that Lynx was innocently oblivious to.
