I don't think we even need to go that far. If you need to think about
whether a post belongs on here, open Notepad and type it out as a simple
text message and save it to desktop. Let it sit overnight, and review it
the next day. If it still looks OK, copy and paste it into your post and
send. Otherwise, revise or trash it.
That works for me. Sometimes in the passion of the moment, a response or
post seems perfectly OK, but in retrospect it may appear entirely
inappropriate. Not only might you catch something before you send it only
to regret it later, it's amazing how often embarrassing grammatical and
syntax errors that you didn't notice first time will stick out like a sore
thumb when you review a composition a little while after you first wrote
it.
