Indeed. As does mine.

I beg to differ. Serene posted her (food-related) reply on the 29th
March at 05:10 (my time). Steve Pope also replied (again food-related
but with cross-posts) on the 29th at 05:22, then Bobo Bonobo (Bryan)
responded to the OP (also without removing the cross-posting) on the
29th at 05:27. He did point out that he thought it might be a troll
post, I'll give you that...

However, *your* response to Serene was posted on the 29th at 06:06.
Think you need to get a better newsreader (or maybe you have those
posters kf'd, who knows?).

Either way, may I remind you that r.f.c is *not* a moderated group, so
taking Serene to task about this was a tad over the top, IMNSHO. And of
course (as you have already admitted in your post dated April 1st at
23:59) your forgetting to remove the cross posts yourself was a big
faux pas too. <laugh> IOW, sh*t happens.
