1)  nanog can sometimes take hours to forward posts to all members
2)  the people directly involved in the thread reasonably expect to get
responses immediately
3)  seeing your name in the To/Cc line may attach greater importance to the
message
4)  duplicates can be automatically blocked by procmail with:
