Nah, nor grandson. I asked a long time ago, and he denied close relationship.
I don't see anywhere on here referring to folks who want to "disassociate with CT", rather seems to be about active posters who try to hide dirty laundry, or even just confuse an entire thread (even accidentally). [And yes, I did go through the thread and reread all previous posts]Heck, Eclipse did something similar just this past week and didn't seem too upset when MIKE put it back (caused confusion in the thread, replaced for continuity).Of course, if I were a betting man, I'd put money that the mods would, if a poster actually got a lawyer involved, give them a complete package- delete all posts, delete profile, IP ban, and a nice email saying "Nice havin' ya, bye "Remember, I am not a moderator and cannot speak for them or their actions, and cannot say what they would actually do. But seriously, anyone who got a lawyer involved for a forum such as this.... Yeah.(BTW- way to stir the pot!)P.S. II- I love that Nathan's signature is directly above the post above this one.

Unfortunately, there isn't an option for members to actually delete their own posts. I do this every now and again, but it is almost always immediately after I made the original post and realized my mistake.Because you've decided to self moderate after you've clicked submit and left us with "Deleted" and removed all trace of what you actually posted... inappropriate or otherwise.I'm asking that members own up to what they post... and just put a quick note after the original text to request deletion.... instead of removing the edit option entirely, or keeping edit logs.Self moderate before you click submit.... Once you post it, you own it.

Once you post it, you own it.What about asking the moderator if they would moderate (remove the posting of concern) so as not to mess things up? I just retired this year, but I ran into some issues a few years ago that should not have made it onto the main website. Not realizing it, I deleted my questions. I guess I should have written a moderator to either remove or hide my postings in questions. No longer a serving CAP member, I no longer will have to write 'help' questions, but I may be able to answer a few.[size=78%] [/size]Anyway, I truly enjoy this blog, and now I contribute by answering questions, replete with chapter and verse with current regulations (retired ppl lose eservices, but still have access to main webpage).Keep having fun! I was given great advice which I only took this year: "When it stops being fun...leave!"Take Care, Dave
