Sorry about that, Tom. I had it somewhere on a long list of "to do" items and managed to not get to it. I've patched up your report.
Scott, Tom's request was for a change to a fishing report. I'm always willing to change erroneous fishing and dealer report data, as well as grab bag submissions, as time allows.
The message board is another matter. Philosophically, I don't believe it's appropriate to alter posts made to a message board after they are published. Not only can it confuse a reader trying to keep up with a thread if stuff is disappearing or changing, but it's also not a reflection of real world communication. If you say something in public, you can't suddenly make those words "unheard." You can post a later message with a retraction or explanation, just as you would in real world communication.
The one exception I make is severe violation of the posting guidelines, when a message is likely to offend readers and diminish the board. In those cases, I will alter or delete the text of a post, leaving a note in place of the deleted text, explaning my actions. I hate doing even that (based on the same philosophy), but without that, I have no way to defend the integrity of the board if some yahoo comes along and wants to trash it.
