When this message arrived here it arrived in net.news, though we have
no mention of net.news/news.misc in our aliases file and news.misc was
created automatically by a newgroup control message a couple of days
ago. This article is a followup to that one. Rick, did you also post 
this to net.news, or is something awry somewhere?

Appended is the header as it arrived here.

I don't know about you, but it came into my system in the net.news group.
The header even says so.
