My news reader does the same thing and yes, there is a post that he is
replying to although not picked up by my ISP or google.

Luckily, the threads are ones I wouldn't jump into, but it makes me wonder
what is happening.

I thought the ISP was cleaning them out or restricting some originating IP
address ranges, but I see that in the Adrian Bauuck! thread, Adrian did
respond in the thread and was visible. Only the message before Dave's is
not.

The same on

Re: BIKINI MODELS

I guess as long as it isn't someone offering a '66 coupe for $25,000 or an
'06 Z06 for $25,000 or just giving something (car-related) away, then I'm
not really missing anything.

I notice that you are posting via supernews. They recently took over
Earthlink's usenet accounts and who knows who else's, but everyone
seems to be suffering, and I lost a couple of groups that I always
post to in the process. I think google accounts and crossposters are
getting the ax mostly...
