Do you see what I see?

I recommend that if you make a mistake when writing a post, that instead of deletion you consider editing the your post, leaving the original text and then including a retraction or correction as appropriate (perhaps in a different font or color to highlight the edit). This will leave future readers much less confused... not to mention old timers like me!

John, you made a good point. That approach makes a lot of sense to me.

But, heck, a Luger newbie like me found this thread topic above my head and confusing with or without edits or deletions. LOL
