Tom,
IANAL (I am not a lawyer), but would offer my nonlegal
opinion anyway. First of all, trademarks are protected
under a different set of rules than copyrights. I
think your usage of "DGO" is perfectly legal. If you
really want to be safe, adding an acknowledgement "DGO
is a trademark of IBD" would do.

Posting of copyrighted materials in a group like this,
would normally be covered under the "fair use" clause.
The following would be an example of "fair use:"

I don't understand the comment about "again proving
the point that you can't teach old dogs new tricks" in
Friday's Big Picture. Why wouldn't old tricks work?

Posting entire articles wholesale, OTOH, would clearly
be infringing.
