No, you can't get rid of the evidence by any means that I know of.
I was lying in bed the other night, looking up at the stars, and thinking, "Where in the heck is my roof?"

Test to see if this post can be removed by maker.

I created the above post and will try to remove it using the Remove link.

The Remove link (Upper right hand corner of post) will remove the original post.  It did not, however, remove the verbage that was quoted in this link.

The Remove link is not shown in the display of your posts shown in your profile.  If you found a post in that listing that you wanted to remove, you would have to click on it's link to go to the original thread and use the Remove link at the original thread level.

So if you really want to remove YOUR own posts, you can use the "Remove" link (the little X means remove) to do so for a given post in its original thread.  If someone has quoted you, then your post will remain in his post until he removes it.
