Why have earlier contributions to this discussion been removed? Mar 11

?

Back in the day, when posts were removed, posters were notified and told why.
Now my previous post has been removed, so I will not repeat what I said.
However, I think it is important to look at what is actually referred to. My reaction was completely different after I checked it out.
