Since you posted this in the Paranormal forum, am I to infer that you suspect you may possess a paranormal ability to kill threads?

Very easy to answer:

You kill every thread you participate in because you are the last person to reply to every thread you participate in. Paranormal claim officially declared DEBUNKED!

Let us celebrate with wine and spirits (not paranomal spirits, the alcohol).

Hey Max, you aren't the only one. I seem to have killed one over in the Literature forum and I still don't know why...Come on over to Puzzles, some of those threads NEVER die!

Internet Detective seems to be in a state of rigor mortis. Maybe I'll go try to revivify it.

Hey Max, let's test your power. Post in the latest Bethke thread and see if it actually dies. If it does, I think you should be able to claim Randi's million.

Well, it was a good try Max, but it appears your power failed.
Dang. You don't get the Million and that Bethke thread just will not die. It's loosers all the way around.

If you'd done as I did and posted this in Community, you might be on your way to nine pages of posts!
