noted; thanks for the feedback!
I removed it instead of deleting the content simply for speed; it's fasater for me to do that than call her post up and remove the text, then resave it. I understand the need to keep the post names in there now, though...
snogal wanted me to remove her post, and I figured that since I was going to remove the content that simply deleting it would do the same thing, but it seems to have added to the problem.
You're all absolutely correct, though; since a thread's flow is based upon all the parts being viewable, removing a post rather than just the content can cause confusion.
sorry 'bout that...
