Any explanation why this long and interesting thread has been locked?

If it's because of the silly comments made by the last person to have left a post, surely that post could have been deleted instead of locking a popular thread? Isn't that what Moderators are supposed to do?

The answer is simple. It had gone round and round in ever decreasing circles and there was nothing new to say. So it remains thus.
