discuss-clean-msg-header is confused by the "From " in the first line,
which it interprets as being the UNIX From line of a bunch of mail
headers.
Probably the right thing is to wrap magic elisp error-checking code
around the right place in discuss-clean-msg-header. I'm not sure if we
have a resident elisp guru to deal with that or not.

Subject: Class of '09 to have Swim Test in Charles!
From the Boston Globe today:
The waters of the Charles River Basin keep getting cleaner, with
bacteria levels safe enough for boating five days out of six last
year, according to new studies being released today.
And for the first time in decades, the river east of Watertown Square
was clean enough for swimming more days than not last year, reflecting
continued progress by public works agencies stopping sewage from
spilling into the river.
Several major landowners along the Charles, including the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, are forming a new Clean Charles
Coalition today to intensify river cleanup efforts, including funding
a boat to make regular collections of floating trash.
''It's something we care a lot about, because after all, it's our
front yard,'' Paul Parravano, MIT's co-director of government and
community relations, said yesterday.
.....
More than 2,300 MIT students, faculty, and others affiliated with the
institution use the river annually. MIT has always required people to
pass a swimming test in a pool before using a boat, but Parravano
said, ''Thanks to this project, we look forward to the time in 2005
when we can hold swimming tests in the Charles River.''
