I've noticed quite a few old (years old) threads getting replies. For example, in the Horse Care Forum, threads from 2005 are being revived.
Has anyone else noticed?

Maybe the search engine is being used? Maybe we will quit rehashing the same old things every six months or so?
The problem I see is a lot of great cattle folks have left this forum. Some of them were pretty much subject matter experts in my opinion. Now they can't/won't respond.

I am usually thankful for the archives. I have found several answers in there without having to bother the board again. Eventhoug I am new to the board, I notice a lot of names that do not respond to anything. Always sad when people move on.

Seriously Matt Helm had to be in vogue when you were maybe 6yrs old MM. I remember reading it in High School and it was not even current then.

Is your real name Sister Mary Elephant? You are supposed to follow that "SHUT UP" with a kind "thank you".
Frank and Joe Hardy were my 60's reading enjoyment.
I read them back in the early 50s. Still not sure who matt helm is/was. Just googled matt helm and now I know why I never heard of him. To the best of my knowledge/memory (which is a little shaky at best) I've never read a spy novel.backhoeboogie":3h58a21u said:

Probably where it came from. Cheech and Chong's Big Bamboo is where I remember the pun from. Early 70's. I am pretty sure it was Sister Mary Elephant but could be wrong.

Yep. That's it. Maybe my memory aint all that bad. I googled it and you can even get a Sister Mary Elephant "SHUT UP!" ring tone on your phone. MM may already have it
