I am not the only one who notices that on older threads many of the links within them that reference other places on the Early S Registry don't work any longer.

I imagine this is due to the software upgrading at some point and breaking old links by changing the url structure.

Has anyone figured out how to deconstruct an old url and reform it to the current format? Or are all these old references just lost?

For instance
http://www.early911sregistry.org/for...&highlight=888 doesn't work. But at some point referenced something.

I have tried
http://www.early911sregistry.org/for...read.php?16179, which is close to the current format. But it's clear I need more info.

Any ideas are appreciated, as it would relink someone else's efforts and make the old threads so much more useful.
