I delete answers far more often these days

The habit of pausing, reflecting, and deleting a response, which we all have done, makes this forum refreshingly different and better than much of social media.

The other thing - not to be ignored - is that you’ve gotten the value out of writing the response, even if it’s never posted. Whether it winds up being valuable to others, it’s usually valuable to the author due to the requirement to articulate and clarify thoughts.

Although I’d feel negligent if I didn’t re-link this form letter from Robert Heinlein:

Just noting that the original link doesn’t work anymore, but there’s a copy here: [image] I went looking for it today and had to do some hunting, so figured I’d update the thread.
