Comrades:
	Our infiltration of the target newsgroup is almost complete.
The enemy cannot distinguish between our agents and the true rumormongers.
Unfortunately, neither can we.  Therefore, I suggest that we use the
following convention to identify ourselves to each other:

	1) Begin posts to net.rumor with the phrase "I have heard a rumor
that...".
	2) End posts to net.rumor with the phrase "Can anybody verify this?"

Alternatively, posting a followup to a post with these phrases will also
serve to identify yourself as an ally to our glorious cause.

Yours in bizarreness,
	Michael Browne
