I see that a lot is going on here with an upgrade and new look etc.  I also see that several articles I wrote some years ago, to which I still refer people, have disappeared from the site.  One was a review of Losmandy Ovision, another was how to collimate an SCT in "adverse circumstances."

Just would like to know if those articles are going back up.

Thanks,
Greg N

Thank you for that.  What is confusing about this new state of affairs is that the articles have disappeared from Google searches.  

Are they going to stay disappeared?   Usually when I refer someone to these articles I just Google them and paste the link.  Logging on here and retrieving them will take considerably longer. 

Thanks Greg

Do you happen to know the previous "search terms" you were looking for to find the articles. I'll personally keep an eye on those and make sure they get reindexed for you.

Thank you
Well it's nice to know you know what's going on.  I suggest we give it a week or ten days.  Google is pretty thorough.  It indexed all this stuff once before.

thanks,
Greg N
