Your ignorance of computer software does not make such a
newsreader non-existant, Jim. In fact, it doesn't even need to be
a "superduper heuristic newsgroup reader". Any newsreader that
lets you set a score file for specific message header information
will accomplish the task.

Every post you make through Google has "24a3776d" at the beginning
of the Message-ID header. Every response to you contains
"24a3776d" in the References header.

A simple score file setting to exclude any messages with
"24a3776d" in the Message-ID and References header, and you no
longer exist - unless you morph your identity by changing NNTP
services or software.

The fact that I choose not to use such filter does not mean that
it cannot be accomplished. The evidence of the process is
available he
