Hmm I'd not actually noted that, so I'm surprised, but generally I'm viewing when threads are not that old. Looking at the first page though, a lot of topics marked dead are just a repeat of numerous more or less the same topics that have been posted the last few days. I see a couple like the German start up launching a satellite is dead, despite being seemingly unique and possibly interesting - however no one has vouched for it either.
Other than being a repeat, the article might have been just a bit of fluff and deemed more or less pointless, or complete BS by a number of people who read though.
I don't generally visit ars any more - from the time they though it was cool to have my browser load up 60 or 100 meg video ads first up, though I've noted the last few months, their site has actually loaded fairly lightly - but it may be just I've got the trouble nailed down.
