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.

Sometimes when you try to post from Google, you wait several seconds,
then get a message that tells you there was an error and to try again
later. If you leave the page, you lose your response if you don't C&P
it, so you don't want to leave the thread to see if has posted, which
was taking 3 hours yesterday. So you click [Post] again and again]
until you say to hell with it, only to find a dozen consecutive posts
with your name on it. It's embarrassing enough without Harshman taking
you to task.

I'm only clicking once for this.
