Feature REQ: 10? second delay for editing posts.

Okay, so you just realized that you typed BART, instead of BORT, and you really want the BORT liscence plate... but then just because you're

a. drunk
b. type quicker than you think
c. think quicker than you talk
d. have a mechanical claw that shoots lazers instead of a hand...

you typed BART.

...so instead of: Edited to correct BART to BORT, you'd have 10 seconds or so to edit before everyone knows you can't complete a sentence, proofread it, send it off to editing, correct and fact check and then do proofs.

You wouldn't be able to re-do your whole bullshit story, and if you typed "thee-way calling" in the topic, instead of "three-way", ahhahah who would do that.. heh heh...ack cough... tuff luck, but maybe a grace period for common shit, I should have not put that appostrophe after it's because I meant a possessive its.

But the edit time is 3 hours before the post time - time zone conversions missing in some code?
