I will use your approach when editing henceforth.

Thanks for the suggestion,

Elaborate revisions such as that aren't often necessary. Typos or even complete changes are usually no problem. When it becomes a problem is after a comment or correction or a challenge is made to a post and the "commenter" doesn't quote the post he is commenting on. Then after the objection is raised, the original poster comes back and edits his post, and leaves the commenter hanging, and twisting in the wind. By pretending he never said what was being objected to, he makes the objector look foolish. Mike 1985 didn't quote me. I could have gone back, double spaced and created a new paragraph, and then told him that he didn't know how to read.

I would not have gone to the effort I did, if I caught myself and made my thoughts more clear before mike 1985 or someone else commented on what I wrote. To revise, and pretend you didn't say something you did, is just dirty pool. I've been left twisting like that more than once.

RACE ON!!!
