Subject: When not to delete a post

I can't help but keep thinking about something that happened a while back, and I
apologize for starting another non-chess thread, but this is bothering me.

Vincent wrote a post that had something to do with killer books.

A moderator responded, I'm not sure it was the first response, but it was early
on, something to the effect of, "this is factualy wrong, you have been told this
before, but you won't believe this, let's delete this post."  Another moderator
came along and said, "Yes, delete it".

Before Steven could delete it, I think there was another post that said, "no,
don't delete this!".  Maybe that was mine, I don't remember, but I think there
was at least one non-me involved.

Did I dream this, or did it actually happen, and was that post actually deleted?

I would like to know what people think about the idea of deleting posts like
this.

Personally I think this is a bad reason to delete a post.
