Okay, I want to post a gear list on the 'Unca Gremlin's Male Menopause Trip', but can't find it on the archives and so I go to the trip page and look up our Presidentials' trip ('Unca', Gremlin's Male Menopause Trip).

Lo and behold, beside the post, 'I'm in' from Sirpete, there's a post from Ice Tea dated June 27 asking about gear. I take the time to add the gear list and hit submit expecting the post to go to to-day's TT page.

No dice.

So I search the archives for Tea's post and it can't find that one either - it's not on the list of 06-27. What gives?

Do I have to re-type the whole frigging list?
