This of course begs us to ask the all important question:

If I post then person A posts, then person A posts again.
We know A can delete his last post.
If he deletes his last post will (s)he able to delete his previous post, which is now the last post?
And if (s)he deletes his previous last post (ie. deletes both his posts) will I be able to delete my first post?

And if so does this mean that we can carefully unwind any thread deleting in reverse posting order? And can the first post in a thread be deleted by its author?

Or are we limited to only deleting our last post and once someone replies to it it's locked down for eternity (of course it can still be edited...).

As many options as there are stars in the sky...
(well, okay, maybe not so many but this sounds poetic so give me a break,
you know how hard it is to keep these signatures in character?)

[and besides I was thinking of the moving stars, which are also called planets, by some of the wise pretending they know better and inventing new names for everything - you know how hard it is to keep the entire scientific community happy and sufficiently deceived so as not to allow them to discern The True Nature of The Universe? It's hard to remain internally consistent... but that's because I like experimenting... it's really a very good thing I invented supernovas (they're good at covering my tracks [and my mistakes and failures]) and the light speed limit is nice to - means I always have a few years at least (and millions at best) to verify integrity]

heehee, true true. You are very deep, my friend. I bet we could do it if we tried.

So I guess now the question is will we try and on what thread? a new one? so we can delete it afterwards? [and test the deletion theory]

And knowing life someone will stick a post in the middle of our test-thread thus unraveling all our (not so beautiful) (destructive) work...

May those who ever gaze into the heavens not only see the beauty of the Stars, the Moon and Sun,
but also may their sight wander earthwards and notice the beauty of the wild around them.
