Hi Rick, at the bottom of your post there ...

should be some blue printed choices...reply, print thread, etc. To the far right is an edit choice. Click on that and it places your post in an edit mode. Terry

The edit link only appears when

1) you register, and 2) you are logged in _prior_ to making the post. Otherwise, the server doesn't know how to identify the author.

Etched in granite

Unfortunately, if you posted without having logged in, it's etched in granite: you can't edit or delete it, even if you log in afterward. I have automatic log-in, but somehow it didn't do so earlier this week & I posted as a visitor. I couldn't figure out why my avatar was missing, I couldn't edit my post & it displayed most recent post first instead of last (my preference). Then I realized what had happened & discovered I couldn't access the "visitor posts" I had made while not logged in.
