Please feel free - be encouraged - to continue to add to the stories in our long history. The Coffee Shop is
not a normal forum where last month's discussion is old news this month. We (moderators, admins) do not lock old topics very often, and indeed you'll find we often merge continuing stories.
The forum
does alert you when you post in older topics; I am likely going to change the message here to be more positive about continuation. The warning of the re-opening of a topic will remain in some form, though, as the poster needs to be aware - to set a context at the start of his post, and sometimes to be aware that this comments follow up a member who's no longer active at The Coffee Shop.

The corollary question you may ask - "How do I actually find a topic to follow up on - I know it was discussed somewhere!" ... and the answer has to be the
deep search box; the search on the menu bar uses standard forum software and is often not useful, yielding confusing results.
With thanks to the member who raised this issue in a personal message. Wonderful to have customer comments and suggestions like this.
