@ossobuco,
I'll add the whys, in case this comes up for someone else. According to the tagger, unlikely, since no one could be as good at this as I am. Possibly true.
My browser favorites bar (correct again, Tsar) has the propensity for having its choice links just whiff away if the passing cursor is somehow clicked on too long. I've had a2k disappear something like thirty times, since I tend to site it first in line, which is near other popular items to click on.
When this happened, this time, I quickly replaced that with an a2k link, which was, by mistake, just re the page I was looking at, not the general New Posts link. Thus, every time I went to a2k, I saw the same thing. And was befuddled.
That would be ossobucchitis.
