Mysteries on msnews.

[James Silverton]

Hello All!

I note that m.p.excel.misc disappeared this morning from
msnews.microsoft.com. It seems to be alive and well on eternal-september
but I restored it to msnews just now and it seems to be receiving the
same posts. What's going on?

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

While I am aware that MS, as they say, is "transitioning" (horrible
word) to forums, I wonder why my reference to m.p.excel.misc on the
msnews server was removed and why can I restore it and still see new
posts? I'm more than a little puzzled.
