That doggone pile of lisp won't even download a `%' marked article when
it is expunged from the server..... just kidding.
Trying just now, on some old near expunged messages that my predicate

been occasions when this did not work. I will try to report on one
when it next happens. Assuming it wasn't something like my opening
joke at work.
