Mike, how in the

is anyone going to alter a post to make it appear like
someone else's, when the post is listed as "Sent" by whomever it is that
actually sent it?

The problem is that you *didn't* alter the number
of symbols at the beginning of the line, so it
looks like I wrote something that I didn't. That's why there's
no in front of the "[expletive deleted]" part that I wrote above.

The "art" of making it look like someone else had sent it
would only be evidenced as deviant behavior IF (and I did not) I had also
changed the Header information to look like it had been sent by Jim.

Simply going in and changing what someone else wrote without
changing the symbols is misattribution and one of the very few
things that are almost universally condemned on Usenet. Headers
simply tell what the number of symbols means.

Of course it was all probably just a small mistake but I thought you'd
want to know.
