Thanks to all of you for both the kind words and the thoughtful apologias for why Travel News is an asset to FT.

A special thanks to those who take the time to PM or use the "Alert A Moderator" button to share you thoughts about particular threads and where they best fit.

It is a mystery, isn't it? One has to think there is something else at play.
