Is r.g moderated or something? Otherwise the time since you last posted 
shouldn't effect the time it takes for the post to arrive.

Possibly the biggest complaint I have about current generation Pan is 
that it no longer saves a copy of posts you make, as it used to. I 
consider that a major regression, a serious problem, and terrible 
blemish on an otherwise excellent product. It was almost enough to drive 
me to another newsreader.

You might be lucky and find that gedit saves a temporary copy under 
/tmp, or whatever obscure location Gnome hypothetically uses instead. 
But probably not.
