I'll type slowly so you can follow along.

First, it's customary and appropriate to quote /and attribute/ that to
which 
one replies.  Thus, my request of Mike to identify who wrote what is 
perfectly reasonable.  (When you add in things like kill-files, it makes
it 
even more understandable that your vaunted "tree display" doesn't always 
provide all relevant information.)

Sesond, it's dishonest to delete "inconvenient" material to hide context
and 
especially content.  In this little thread, Tom made a little crack about 
helmets preventing traumatic brain injury and death.  Then in a follow-up,

he DELETED his own remark and only commented on the /death/ aspect,
leading 
someone reading only that post to think that I or someone else had claimed

that lids prevent fatalities when in fact no one had done any such thing.

I realize that you're incapable of being honest or even analytical enough
to 
admit or see that this is true, but there you go.
