Credit where it's due...  Bob uses a program he got from me called "post"
that does most of that standardization.  I've been able to foist it off
on most of the source-group moderators, and many of the binary-group ones.

My program is descended from one written by the Grandfather of Us All,
John Nelson of Genrad.  He was the first moderator of mod.sources --
one of the first moderators at all, in fact -- and started many of
the current practices...
