 * I’m looking for a way to completly remvoed all posts before a certain date. What
   would be the best way to go about that? I was thinking of just killing them manually
   from the database. Will that cause any problems?

 * Maybe call it a bump for this post – but I too am in search of an automated method
   to delete OLD posts. I run an aggregator and would like to delete 6 month old
   posts. in the past 6 months I have already piled up 3000+ posts from all the 
   feeds coming in
 * Any help would be appreciated, a manual method would be tedious
