I seem to be getting a lot of threads lately that Dave is the first person
in the thread, yet he is replying to some message I don't see.

I have no one in my blocked lists. (Yeah, crazy move, but I can be thick
skinned.)

So I am curious if there is something my ISP is blocking or if Dave is
creating messages with an appearance of "replying" to someone.

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

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...
