You are right, Dave. It doesn't make much sense to post them without the context
of the other messages. Neither did I save a copy.

I must say that these deletions made me a little bit upset. English is not my
native tongue and so it takes a while to formulate and write the sentences. In
this case, I also tried to choose my words quite carefully because of the "hot"
issue. But it was just a waste of time (except for some exercise in English).
