I see a handful of posts from you in the Google archive in
austin.gardening and austin.food, starting late August.

It seems to be a common accidental setting in Outlook Express, especially
when first setting up the news account, to mark your own posts as
already read, effectively killfiling yourself.

I don't use Outlook (or Windows) myself, so I can't tell you exactly where
in the Outlook menus you would find this, but look for it under "filters"
or "blocked senders" or possibly "bozo bin" in your newsgroup settings.
