Let's see: September 12 to November 11 for Tom to come up with that
nonsense. Almost two months!

Does anyone have an idea what might be going on with him?

 
Perhaps Tom's internal clock is running backwards causing him to
re-live his past articles and other disasters?
 
My 2nd best guess is that Tom has his NewsHosting.com browser setup to
sort articles by something other than the date and/or has disabled
threading/grouping by subject.  The result is that articles are listed
in a jumbled order with Tom replying to whatever appears at the top
(or bottom) of the list of articles.

So, mere incompetence instead of mental illness? Hmm, or possibly both,
I suppose.

I avoid getting involved in assigning the blame until after the cause
is identified.  It might also not be Tom's fault.  Tom is using two
Usenet News readers.  NewsHosting.com reader and Pan for Windoze.

I tried the newshosting reader for a few hours and gave up.  I don't
recall the exact problems that I experienced.  Pan had a very
different problem.  It was written for Linux and ported to Windoze by
someone else.  After a few releases, Windoze development ceased,
leaving all the bugs un-fixed while Linux development continues.

I've been watching the Linux version progress and I like what I see,
so far.  However, it will probably be years before the Linux version
is ready for general release:

Errrr...  Pan dates to 1999, that is 25 years ago.
And, I might add that I've been using it for most if that time with no
problems.
