3. I have asked this before. My only guess is that someone

could totally change what they said hours later! :shrug:

4. that's a very good point

you start a thread and you leave only to come back later that day and it started a huge flamewar or people are ganging up on you. So you change what you wrote and deny starting a war.

5. You need to edit this. It should be "Why", not "What..."

7. Back in the olden days when I joined DU...

we couldn't edit our posts at all.

And it was a five mile walk up hill in the snow just to get to the internet.

Now that I'm an "elder" I have to say things like that.
