Bah, I only got 5572, including 4 that were munged in various ways
by eliminating tabs or replacing them with X's.  I'd say that modifying
the article id and passing it on isn't the greatest idea.  Unless
everybody does the same thing, you'll get several copies via differnt
paths.  My inews now tosses the aticles with spaces or tabs with a
message about obscene article id's...
