"The sheer dishonesty of editing a post without including a caveat speaks ill of that person, and I will no longer post to a thread on which he has posted."
I'm staying out of the argument. But I have to admit I do this all the time - usually without thinking about it. I reread a post and realize I've made grammatical or spelling errors or left out a sentence that connects two thoughts. If this were a more formal venue or if I were making extensive edits, I might include such a note.

My dearest FF, the dishonesty refered to does not involve going back to tweak spelling or grammatical errors. The reference is to those that post an inflammatory post that provokes an equally inflammatory answer wherein the original poster goes back and alters their post to make it appear that they have not written anything inflammatory. There is nothing dishonest about not noting the type of changes you point out. Me, I'm staying out of this argument as well.

I think -- I hope -- the issue has become moot.
Cautiously let's see if the waters do indeed remain tranquil (or at least more tranquil) so those who are interested may stay, and participate, undistracted.
