Huh? Your statment doesn't make much sense to me. You act as if you can
read a message without seeing the subject, which is certainly not the
case if you are using slrn, since slrn (like most news clients) display
a list of message subjects before you are allowed to see the bodies.
Now, you may choose to ignore the subject, but you can't unsee it once
you've seen it, and something tells me, whether you admit to it or not,
that you don't read every single message that is posted in every news
group without deciding first, based on the subjects, whether you want to
read them or not. 

Or were you trying to say something different?

I often ignore posts from Google. Use a real news client instead.
