How to find old threads?
I tried to find a thread from 1999 in the Trip Report forum, but it looks like I can only go back one year. I always thought a great benefit of Flyertalk was a permanent archive of information. Trip Reports are the type of information that should be preserved as long as possible.
I know someone has to pay for the data storage, but if any forum should be saved, it's trip reports. Or is it there and I just haven't found a way to retrieve it?

Sorry, I wasn't aware of the archives. Seek and ye shall find, I guess.
Am I correct in assuming that we cannot add to those threads and have them show up as new on Flyertalk?

I have been trying to find the old Montreal FAQ pictures and when I go to this:
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum.../000149-4.html
link, it takes me nowhere.
Any ideas? Does anybody have any of the pictures?
