usenetarchives.com has some issues:
- The list on threads.php has the dates as one day in the future and capitalizes the first letter of the subjects.
- Some messages are encoded incorrectly. For example "Rn 4.3 patches 1-10"
seems to have been interpreted as Shift JIS, as

. - Dates incorrectly report a timezone offset of -0400/-0500 instead of UTC (see

Jim Rees used both the addresses uw-beave!jim and apollo!rees. He connected both uw-beaver and apollo to Usenet, and when he connected apollo, he posted apollo!rees as his contact and mentioned uw-beaver.
James Gosling did not use the address uw-beave!jim. Although Gary Perlman cited
From: decvax!microsof!uw-beave!jim (James Gosling at CMU)
as the source of
shar in 1984-10-05 "shell archiver written in C" [gg],
he was mistaken, as clarified by Jim Rees to bug-gnu-utils.
Searched "apollo!rees" in net.sources and "rees" in net.news.newsite.
