LMHudson,
Often times when Messages stops working on a machine, the best approach to take can be to log out of Messages on that device, and re-add it, as though you had never had it on. You will have to approve the device on your iPhone again, but it should resume working normally.
Be advised, you may lose your Messages history on your laptop.
Go to: Messages > Preferences > Accounts > Sign Out
Or try: Messages > Preferences > Accounts > Enable this account (uncheck, and re-check)
Cheers!

Thanks for your suggestion. I tried it and found that Messages on the Air updated two threads but left the others untouched. I deleted all the threads. We will see if it repopulates itself.
