From time to time people delete their own postings on the forum. They may have changed their mind. Or it is obvious they have accidently posted the same info twice in 2 postings. The software for this forum does not allow members to physically delete a posting. Instead the posting shows "deleted", and the text of that message is not available to the public.

Whenever I see these self-deleted postings, I go in and nuke them. Takes me 5 seconds. If you ever decide to delete your old posting and you want to keep the text, you should copy the text to your PC prior to self-deletion.
