Maybe I’m having a very odd halucination, but did anyone else remember reading earlier today (6/1) a thread in this forum (IMHO) vaguely titled “why you come to the SDMB”?

I know that I posted to it earlier today, and now I can find neither the thread nor the post (I did a search for both my username, and some words I know I used in the post, and nothing came up). I’ve never had this happen to me before. Did the thread just disapear? Am I being daft? Or did it never exist in the first place, and ought I check myself into the hospital?

Apparently the thread was deleted and the OP banned. [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=259318](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=259318)

Thanks. I just found that and was on my way back here to say I’d solved the mystery. I suppose if a mod feels the need he or she can close this. But, I’m sure it’ll sink like a rock pretty quickly anyway.
