Can't explain that. This is happening all over the place. I have observed it in at least 7 or 8 newsgroups. This has happened before but I think the last time it occured the posting dates remained unchanged so it was easy to tell which messages were new and which were re-runs. This time all the old messages have today's date.

Many moons ago it was explained to me that somebody's server software was screwed up and was recirculating messages - but those did have the old dates.

I had the same thing, only on this group. I watch several others that were OK
