Moderator post: Please don't delete your own comments

If you delete your comment after other participants have replied to it, readers who arrive later will have trouble following the conversation. Please try not to do this except to correct important typos such as addresses, phone numbers, and dates. Thanks. -- Your friendly co-moderator

(to clarify: the above refers to me deleting my own comment as an ordinary user, not to me deleting someone else's comment as a moderator. I've almost never done the latter.)
