In the past, if you go in to edit the first post in a thread and then delete it. The entire thread disappears.

It's a bug-on-my-lens related subject. Google my name and it comes to 3rd or 4th on the search engines.

Don't see the particular harm. I did find it amusing and yes I read it for the first time today.

My name is quite common so in spite of being several work related articles per year, I never show on the first few pages even when entering my profession in addition to my name. I guess it can be a blessing.

Well, i'm stuck with it I guess!

I just didn't want my clients finding out my big whitey had been infested with bugs lol. MY problem was solved a long time ago, but the first impression to me being a client would be: "This guy is full of bugs. Will my albums have bugs too?"

Ahh well...i'll have to go grab a snickers bar.

Even if you can't delete the thread, can't you at least edit it to remove most of the text?

If it is archived I don't think any changes can be made to it. I remember that post, it was entertaining, nothing bad there.

haha!! You guys are something else..thanks for the support, it was freaky when I saw huge bugs in my viewfinder and entertaining after I found the solution to kill them!

I sold those lenses anyways and changed all of my gear. My Think Tank bag spent about 5 days outside in the cold after I emptied down the entire dust mite killer bottle on it! They haven't come back yet, but now I keep my bag in a secure place and out of dust.

Ahh lesson learned..never buy used stuff that's been collecting dust for years..

Italo,

Great story. I enjoyed reading the thread.

If it ever happens again, just put your cmera next to a larger speaker, and blast some rap music for 24 hrs.
Or maybe some Brittney Spears.

Not even dust mites can survive that.

Thanks Italo, I did enjoy that thread a lot, and it was a pleasure to read it again.
Now about Google indexing that thread... I am afraid there is no bug in Google (pun intended

), that is just a feature and you have to live with it.
