Why is Yahoo not even leaving a read only option for this page?
There is good information on this site especially on older answers. I don't understand why they won't leave it up. Do they not care anything about historic value? We can download it I guess but I don't understand

i'm sure you can still find your fill of historical content online; where do you think we get the answers from :) we look it up if we don't know

Because they don't choose to do so, and there's a whole lot of garbage posts too. There's little to no "historic value" in leaving up questions that people can find in searches on their own (which is a lot of what was asked here, by people unable or unwilling to do their own searches).
