I sent a question to the list several months ago regarding removing a fixed bottom bracket cup from a French Bicycle. I got several good replies and I went on with my business. Then about 6 weeks ago I randomly started getting replies from list members answering my question again (which I didn't resend) which I assumed ended up in their mailbox but it never showed up on the digest version that I get. Then yesterday it happened again (you guys must think I ask this question over and over again)! When everyone replys, the email has my original submitted question but it is dated October 11 2009. My original post never shows on the digest but I get lots of replies, here is one of my recent replies
Hi Todd, depending on the bike ir could be swiss with left hand threads on the fixed side. What brand?

Anybody else ever experience this or know what might be going on?
