I tried Googling this. What I discovered that Travel.com is another
one of those places mirroring AFW and filling its "Wine Forum" with
our posts. At least they don't put fake stupid monikers on our posts:

http://forums.travel.com/wine-forum/

FWIW, a quick search of my munged From header turns up the following
sites that poach our material:

(Without reference to afw):
forums.travel.com
www.a1foodforum.com
www.recipesforum.com [site down]
www.mombu.com [site down]

(With reference to afw):
www.opennntp.com
boardreader.com
www.cookingboard.com

It seems like a lot of these sites come and go rather quickly (apart
from the explicitly designed Usenet portals), but it still is quite
sleazy when they don't even cite alt.food.wine as their source.
