This apology note should have been sent as a reply to the original
spurious post, to avoid creating yet another thread.

No need to apologize; just cancel the original article next time. (There is
a Cancel FAQ in case your newsreader does not provide this functionality
directly.)

Most, if not all, news servers don't support the cancel operation as
spammers were cancelling legitimate articles and replacing them with

Indeed, I have inadvertently posted stupid things here and failed utterly in
my attempts to cancel the posts

Yup, there is no valid substitute for engaging your brain *before*
