In reply to the discussion: There was a software glitch affecting about 250 threads in General Discussion [View all]eppur_se_muova
(37,357 posts)64. I clicked on a thread, and the title of the OP changed ...
the body of the text had nothing to do with either title as far as I could tell.
It was a post by Third Way Manny ...
So I said, "well, OK" and never realized it was a glitch. :/
