While I agree with that in principle, the problem with resurrecting originals posts is that once some FT'ers have read a post, they don't go back to it. For all those people who generously offered free subscriptions, and had only a day to fill up a list of 75 names, they ran the risk of not being able to fulfill their needs. At least with separate posts, people were able to distinguish the difference between the offers, and give each offer the attention it deserved.
