And based on fiddling here, it appears the timeout is 15 minutes. And the timeout also does not appear to reset when an edit is done. That is, when I just looked, my previous post showed as "Posted 15 minutes ago (edited)" and at the bottom "Edited 13 minutes ago by dave_thomas8"

The most likely problem is that the ability to edit has a time limit. As far as I know, it's really short -- like 10 or 15 minutes. That's enough to correct a typo or clarify a comment after you just posted, but not very forgiving. I suppose there are legitimate reasons to have such a timeout, but it doesn't allow those of us who re-read our own post the next day and find an error to do anything about it. Some other forums I hang out on have such a mechanism but it's set for 24 hours or something greater than a few minutes. (Edit: Just checked .... there is an 'Edit' choice in the three dots pulldown minutes after this post.)
