I usually credit this to the nature of the Usenet.  Sometimes followups to
articles appear before the original, and sometimes articles expire locally
before I ever see the original.

I've actually noticed the reverse situation, though.  There are articles
(Usenet, never mail) that I am s\b_u\b_r\b_e\b_ I have read once that I see
again.  This usually happens in the larger groups that I read, so it is
entirely possible that people are reposting the same articles because they
didn't see their words immediately.
