This forgery has been causing mailed replies to appear in comp.sys.apollo.
I'm sure that David Perlman, one of the coolest contributors to 
rec.music.misc, isn't to happy about this either.

note that ...ucbvax!ucsfcgl!berkeley.edu...  ucbvax IS berkeley.edu.
With SMTP and/or NNTP, the forgery could come from anywhere, not 
necessarily berkeley or ucsf.

[ Drivel deleted ]

apollo@berkeley.edu is a gateway from the Internet Apollo mailing list to 
comp.sys.apollo.  Two unsuspecting trivia fans have already unknowingly
sent their replies to comp.sys.apollo.  Please do not reply either to
apollo@berkeley.edu or to dap@cgl.ucsf.edu (I doubt he wants them either)

BTW.  I thought Dap's parody on the typical rec.music.misc question was
highly amusing!  This one would have been mildly amusing, but for the 
side-effects.  I doubt if the perpetrator was unaware of them. though.
