Dear Hitch hikers guide ...
Ever since I became a researcher(over a year ago)there has been the spectral promise of functionality to edit journal entries. Well, now, those poems and fragments of my inner self I put out there on a spontaneous whim over 12 months ago are causung me grief. If you won't give me the chance to edit them myself, then I have to ask if you will erase all content in 'Jellyland' except for the introduction.
If you can't (or won't) then please just scrub the entire account. Fair enough, I was warned at the time of writing it that it couldn't be undone. But you were also promising 'Editing functionality soon'. So, please PLEASE !!! ... I don't want my innermost thoughts compulsarily aired before the universe any more. They're 12 months out of date!

There is a work around in the fact that only five journal entries are shown in your homespace. So quickly write five new Journal Entries, with nothing in them. This will get them off your Homespace, and a Researcher will have to be pretty persistant to go into the previous journal entries (I have done it once since being here - which must be a year now). On the larger picture of being able to edit it, I think it kinda defeats the purpose of a journal, but the Towers have it on the list. Unfortunatly it is one of the things on the list that can be pushed down by other bits and bobs (like getting the servers a bit faster etc.) so it will, eventually, come along. Scrubbing the entire account is a bit drastic, we don't want you to go - please stay....
