Ah, it's Google. Sometimes my newsreader screws up and starts showing the same post multiple times but I see these are actually multiple posts. The newsreader has been screwing up lately in other ways. It would be natural to suspect that somehow the Google problem is causing my problems but I can't see how it would since the multiple posts all have unique identifiers.
