They both did a very good job of forging headers but I can still know that it is
you by your IP number. Here is your header:

Note that your IP address is 76.121.92.246. Now, if you use your DOS program or
Command Prompt just type in (tracert 76.121.92.246) at the command prompt.
Leave a space after 'tracert' and do not include the brackets. Then hit enter.
You will see that your IP traces to Bremerton, WA. That is how I knew it was
you. They cannot forge your IP address. Some headers do not list an IP address
or it only leads back to where the news servers are for whomever news service
they have.
For example, a recent post by John Boy shows an IP address of 75.202.174.87.
That leads to Miami and then to myvzw. That is Mobile Verizon Wireless. The
hub is in Miami but it doesn't tell where he is. It is unlikely that his
computer is hardwired to a land line.
As you suggested, you can expand their headers and see what they are using.
That doesn't always give you a lot of information but you can see what they were
using before. For example if they were consistently using MonsterNews and using
Forte XXX.XX as their reader, then you can assume who has made the post.
