I have downloaded the current and "upcoming" Chart Supplement (formerly Airport/Facility Directory) files from the FAA web site. Both of them have the following quote to which I am confused to what the meaning of "clsd" means in this quote: "Rwy 17R–35L clsd tfc remain south of Arapahoe Rd and east of Interstate 25." I read that as runway 17R-35L is CLOSED to TRAFFIC, but then does go on to say to remain south of a specific east/west road and east of a north/south highway, which does not make sense to me. I do not think that runway 17R-35L is actually closed. I ate lunch at the airport restaurant two weeks ago and saw traffic on that runway. I am looking at KAPA (SW > Colorado > Denver > Centennial -- If you want to look at the chart supplement yourself.) I look forward to learning what that passage is supposed to be informing me of. Thank you. Disclaimer: Not a pilot. Not a student pilot.

Precisely how it happened for me. I found this site then started perusing the posts then decided the camaraderie feels good (I think one can get a feel for a site pretty quickly. Are the users all just a bunch of cantankerous curmudgeons or not -- just to be clear I didn't get the curmudgeon feel here) so made a very small donation as a "tip of my hat" gesture. When I finish ground school this summer (start in July) (I'm not even a student pilot yet) I'll make it a treat to make another donation. It will be like tipping the dealers at a craps table, you don't just throw down a chip as you would at a blackjack table but rather you place their tip as a bet and if it wins they get a larger tip. If it loses they get nothing. Thanks so far for the interesting reading.
