To prevent this topic from digressing any further:

The rules don't say anything about reviving old topics, so it's perfectly allowed. Just keep in mind reviving can be annoying, especially if it's done for no reason, or if the post has no significance. The latter goes for all topics no matter how old. In either case the topic can be closed. It's plain common sense, and it's applied to all topics, even old ones.
