thanks, that helps a lot.

what i'm looking at is why a bunch of ways in the area around Horseheads 
& Elmira NY
disappeared mid-November. here is one of the ways that vanished:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/13037976/history

i see its last appearance is in this changeset:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/3138279

which seems well matched to the area where all the ways went MIA. when a way
is deleted, i take it that it gets the next version with no nodes.

a day later, Jeremy Adams did this one:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/3151711

which didn't seem like it touched any of the ways i'm trying to track 
down -- they
weren't there any more.
