Well, the idea was that if a newsgroup description says that all posts
are anonymized, you really can't expect people who have no experience
in news postings to know exactly which parts are anonymized and which
parts are not.  In some cases, the poster could just forget his normal
signature in place and have his identity revealed.

This is why I decided to snip the signature away and replace it with
an anonymized version.  I believe this is also the method the good'old
anon.penet.fi did, too.
