Jn, thank you very much for the offer, but I don't really see that reposting the information from dh's posts in new posts would do much to restore the integrity and continuity of the thread.
I continue to believe that members should have the discretion to edit their posts. I would never be upset at someone editing a post or posts to eliminate information that they though was in some way hurtful. But to eliminate information simply to show how damaging it can be to do so and for no other reasons is itself hurtful. I don't understand that attitude and to be completely frank I think it sucks.
And the fact that he restored the posts to this thread and not to that thread makes it worse, not better.
