Where are all the older reviews?

I am wondering where the March 2006 review of "PT's Brooklyn" went? It was lengthy and *very* informative. The author was ScottTUSL. I would often refer back to his review every 3 or 4 months--there was so much good, detailed information about the club in that review.
But now I find that the oldest review for PT's Brooklyn is dated May, 2006. Are the older reviews deleted, archived, or lost forever? I wish I would have known about their unexpected disappearances so I could have copied that particular, superb review that had so much good information in it.
Got something to say?

ok. i typed in 'hong kong 2008' and got close to the beginning reviews. i then clicked the right arrows and found the oldest one showing is from june 18 2004. 132 pages of teviews.
You can also manipulate the URL.
+ 5 reviews per page
+ 659 reviews
+ page 2 URL looks like : https://www.tuscl.net/club.php?id=3840&p…
+ page number is referenced in the URL
+ for mongers who grew up with slide rules the arithmetic is easy to do in one's head : 659/10 ~=65, . . 65x2=130. There are still 9 reviews unaccounted for, at 5 per page, the starting page is page 132.
+ so use : https://www.tuscl.net/club.php?id=3840&p…
^^ That's what I do. Your way involves no math though, lol!
As for the older, missing club reviews and forum posts .. I think at some point either the Tuscl database was truncated or perhaps our ability to query or retrieve the oldest items from the database was lost. That is just my wild-assed-guess, though. Don't take it as truth! I simply do not know.
Why are you interested in reviews that are 10 years older or more? Do you still find the information useful or relevant, today? Or is it more for historical curiosity? No judgement. No wrong answers.
Thanks for that clever way to search for things Dominic
For example, I have not been able to find closed club, "Baby Dolls" in Pomona, CA It closed around 2006. That was long before my TUSCL membership. I don't even remember if it was spelled as one or two words, such as "Baby Dolls," "Babydolls Theater," or whatever. So I haven't been able to find it. Any So. Cal members know if that club was ever even listed on TUSCL?
I typed "Baby Dolls Pomona" into Google and did not get a TUSCL hit for that club but Yelp listed the club's name as "Babydolls Theatre".
