Looking back through the messages. Mark is posting to 
gzg-l@scotch.csua.berkeley.edu. The list messages have 
gzg-l@csua.berkeley.edu as the reply to address.

I have my mail tools (home and work) set to 'reply to all' 
automagically since I use the tool at work and for work mails 
(generally we have lots of messages zipping around to lots of people 
at the same time). As such both get set added to the 'to:' field.

As I don't usually see the full address for the list, it doesn't 
always happen. When it does and I see it, I strip off the extra to: 
destination. But this morning as with every morning, I'm going 
through the 100+ mail and firing off replies pretty quick. So 
sometimes I miss the extra to:.

Its actually not a cc, but both recipients. CCs to people are easier 
to see, but aren't too unliked as sometimes a thread gets addressed 
via private mail.  If it really only needs to be to the list, I 
generally strip those off. But then I see those regularly.
