Re: Draft Inline review
As long as you 'Saved' the inline review and haven't "Submitted" it yet, the incomplete review will still be there if you go into the 'REVIEW" section from your drop down menu--find the review in question, click into it and finish before submitting. FYI you can also go in and amend submitted reviews too.

And you can comment on other people's reviews - but, alas, hardly anyone ever does. Take care. Vern

Hey, vern. The few times I commented on another's reviews they got bent out of shape if I didn't agree.

John--the way to retrieve it is to go to "Reviews," then "In-line Posted" (you'll see your review marked as a draft), then select "View." It'll open up and you can continue from where you left off. I had the same trouble. The title "In-line Posted" is confusing--it's there, but it's not really posted. JP

Good thing about that is you find out the people you don't want to waste your time on. Point is, the comment on the review is for the author not the reviewer though it would be nice if there could be a cordial back and forth to defend the various positions taken from both sides. That would/should be extremely helpful to the author and also any open minded reviewer.
No one knows it all and we many times have different opinions on the same thing; doesn't necessarily mean one is right and the other wrong, only different ways of expressing and the more info and options an author has to base their decision upon, well, it should be a gold mine. Of course that is just my opinion and I'm sure others will disagree, but so what, I don't expect to be right all the time, just most of it, lol. Take care. Vern

Re: Draft Inline review
Couldn't agree more, Vern. I just wish it could be that easy and cordial. Feedback, give-and-take, only serve to help us grow and learn. Maybe there should be a session on how to give constructive criticism without becoming defensive, hyper-critical, and downright hostile on occasion.

Thanks everyone, and a special thanks to j p lundstrom. J P told me exactly what to do. It worked. I now know how to find and finish a draft in-line review.
