Duplicate post, sorry....

How can I delete the duplicate completely?

You can't. We used to be able to delete a post on Ford Barn but some would delete a post and then the thread would loose it's meaning.

One of the reasons I always "Quote" a post that I am referring to so that person can't change his post and give my response no or different meanings.

There were also other reasons Ryan made it so we could not delete a post, but we won't get into that here...

seems like duplicate posts could be made an exception to that rule, but it's not a perfect world.....

You can use edit to remove words and replace words.

"Content Deleted" works.

Most forum have a "time limit" on doing edits.

Joe K, where was the "content deleted" button?
looked everywhere (I think) when I discovered the duplicate.....

Subject drift at work here.
No interest in subject of original post :-)
