Old posts aren't 'dead' posts....they are just hibernating, waiting until the interest in them resurfaces again..perhaps due to a news item....local or national.
As for thread wanders, well it is a strange conversation that doesn't meander along, touching other subjects along the way......it is a natural way of conversing.......I have to say that over the years some of the thread wanders have been as interesting as the original topic.

No......I like the forum just the way it is.
