  Stan, it is possible you could be being manipulated by someone who's 
trying to bait you and Greg into a fight by forwarding you his postings in a 
spoofed/forged name; that sort of thing happens quite often on this list.

  As indeed do broken reflectors and autoreplybots and all sorts of 
non-malicious things.

  And indeed sometimes flamewars erupt and someone does bombard someone else 
with posts from the list.

  Have you checked the headers to see if they're coming from the same IP 
addresses he usually posts from?  It's worth making double sure what's 
actually going on.

  Hey, a how-to of tracking headers would even make for an on-topic thread!

    cheers,
      DaveK
