Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    At this point I think you're just ignoring the physics of it, and the links with facts rather circumstantial opinion.

    Try hitting football with a tennis ball at night from 5m away.

    Then try the same thing from 200m away during the day with someone jostling you. Then imagine there are clouds between you and football.

    Often the US bombed using the British night time radar (during the day) to aim as the targets were obscured. Also they had to fly higher during the day than at night. You can't have a bigger miss than bombing the wrong city 120km away in daylight.

    Could you summarise the point you are making here?
