Thanks, yes, I just realized that yesterday I fooled myself.  I am
already reading news via gnus, but yesterday I messed up from which
group I was looking for an old article.  Then I got confused that gnus
article numbers did not match what I was expecting to get and what I did
get as expected in the telnet session.  Entirely my fault!

But you are right: sometimes it is fun to go back to the basics and live
like a caveman!
