I'm new to this whole forum thing but find it the most interesting and helpful web site I've visited in quite a few years. In posting replys I find my posted reply always has an "edit' button at the bottom. Why is it there and why don't other posters have it -- what am I doing wrong to get that -- I don't need it or want it (I think)!! Second question: Do you have a glossary anywhere to help us new comers with the acronyms? All that alphabetic soup can be over whelming! Many thanks again for a great service! Thanks moshe

That is, you see a Edit button on your posts only, I see an Edit button on my posts only. And check out the Acronyms and Abbreviations page at http://priuschat.com/index.php?autocom=art...rticle&id=9 -- Now that I've posted it, I clicked the Edit button to add this line --
It exists simply so you can correct or change a post. It's not uncommon that the erudite post you just clicked "Add Reply" for is jibberish or has a overt spelling error once it comes up. This just allows you to go back and correct or clarify.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Stev0 @ Jul 6 2007, 12:19 AM) [snapback]473827[/snapback]</div> No, I didn't look at the time stamp on message, but I'm wondering why it took from June 26th to July 3rd for me to receive the message. I have "email notification" turned on so I responded when I opened his message. Any thoughts on this? Thanks for reminding me to look at the "time stamps" on messages.
