I was given the option to "un-delete" this question and my quick-clicking-happy-finger chose to do so because I thought I had a good answer to post... ie cron @reboot works in /etc/cron.d directory scripts and not through crontab -e modifications.

My question is What is the purpose of allowing undelete votes on a question the OP deleted?. The question has no answers and the OP should be allowed to delete the question. Un-deleting an OP deleted question seems ridiculous on the surface. I must be missing something here....
