Can we still edit our posts? Seems like something changed recently where I am unable to correct a spelling of a word, etc.

Emil -- This is copied from the bottom of the page. I did the color change. I don't remember if I've ever tried to edit a post, but if you say we used to be able to, they must have changed it. -- John

Emil & others - you should be able to edit your posts. There may be a glitch - I will check with one of the tech wonders tomorrow.

Actually, you can delete a post ..... well you can edit one out and almost delete it.
A couple of times I have, on second thought, wished I hadn't even commented on something. You can edit it down and only leave a couple of periods in the post.
Now, I know that is a waste of space and that I shouldn't have even made the comment to start with. Still, an edited out post is better than a bad post.

The only " cannot " at the bottom of the page for me is that I cannot delete a post. But like Thurman said, there's ways around that, too.....
