 * Appears that the plugin deletes expired post to Trash. It would be nice to have
   the option to delete permanently. I got this to work temporarily (temporary until/
   if I upgrade) by hacking the post-expirator.php plugin file and changing
 * (wp_delete_post($id) === false)
 * to
 * (wp_delete_post($id,true) === false)
 * Thanks!
