G'day h2,

"... should I just remove this post ..."

Well, it looks like you've done that already. This has rendered the only reply meaningless. Please see "How do I change/delete my post?" for a detailed discussion about this.

I don't know what the original looked like, but a better way to handle this situation would be something like:

Update: Please ignore! I was just misreading, badly, ... candle-burning ... brain damage ... yada yada. My apologies to the monks.

Start of the original post ...

... end of the original post.

Now, anyone coming to this thread for the first time, not only knows to ignore the original post, but can also make sense of any replies.

By the way, striking out the original post can be most easily done by wrapping it with <strike>...</strike>. The markup for my example is:

<strike>
<p>
Start of the original post ...
</p>
<p>
... end of the original post.
</p>
</strike>
