Just a note, Geo, your newsreader isn't correctly recognizing the signature
delimiter (dash-dash-space) and automatically omitting the part of the
posting from that point on, as it's supposed to.

Geopelia was using Outhouse Express so it was to be expected.

Though it seems that "KNode/0.10.9" doesn't recognise the delimiter
either. <gd&r>
