Ask HN: Why do I see links that are over 2 years old in the top 100
Ok this has bugged me for a while now. When I start browsing HN to the 4th or 5th page I start to see links that were posted between 100 and 890!!! days ago. Why am I seeing these kind of links resurrecting and showing up within the top 100 current links?

I've never seen one. Can you point out one article or link?
I will grab a screen cap and a link the next time I see it happen. One point to note is that I have only seen it happen when I am not logged in(say if my cache gets reset and I forget to log back in right away). I just tried to find some today and was unable to do so, but it is always interesting when I see a link I swear I read about years ago boasting as a new technology and then notice the link was actually posted two years ago and somehow found its way back into the list.
