I was looking through the MySQL database back up I saved prior to switching over to MT 4. It appears most of my past post were not exported in the file. Funny that, because all of the comments from the past were exported.
Anyway, it's official now; The past posts of Rook's Rant are dead. I've not a way to bring them back. It sucks, but that's life.
One simple bone-headed mistake, one that I knew better then to do, and I've lost my blog history.
Damn.
Update: Of course, on the bright side, I can start a new blog roll. My old one was so huge, it was not possible time wise to cull out the dead, or corrupted, links. But, not until Arvind gets his plugin MT-Blogroll up and running for MT4. And for my fellow Liberal Coalition cohorts, be patient. I will get the links to you guys back up.

Hi Rook, drop me a line at arvind [dot] 2111 [at] gmail [dot] com. I've been working on a new version of MT Blogroll but going back to the basics. Renamed Link Roller, I've created a *really* basic link manager which does nothing more than allow you to create/edit links and publish them (heck even categories have been thrown out in full favour of tags!). So if you're interested in testing it (I'll be launching a public beta later this week, hopefully) do drop me a line!
Email sent in the affirmative, Arvind.
