"Roy" in the subject line, so I see this.

There's a big difference between having old stories appended to a new story and
actually submitting old stories to site that revolves mainly around news. The
reason a no-longer-correct reference was included, by the way (forgot to
mention this in my previous message) is that I often grab groups of postings
rather than assess them on a one-by-one basis. It's risky, but the issue you
raise was not deliberate nonetheless.
