Svejk: *** Off topic *** In regards to your posting error ...

It is indeed unfortunate that no capability exists to delete posts that have been posted in error. Perhaps someone should make that suggestion to SI's whiz kids. Only allow it within the 15 minute EDIT period, of course.

But, here's a little known fact ... if you delete all characters from your post so that it becomes totally blank ... well, heck the SI folks think it is worthless and automatically delete it.

There is a rumor going around, and I can't validate this, but occassionally single word posts get deleted, too.

This technology is fascinating stuff, ain't it?

Josef--- Posting here with a news article on SPNSF is a mortal sin. You violated the 11th commandment. Maybe the threadkeeper, being a GODess has a new set. If so you are in deep doo-doo as this will be a violation of the 1st (new)Commandment. Did you see ALYD pop today. Last I looked it was up over 3 1/2. I hear rumors MORE announcements this week!
