**** LARGE SNIPPAGE...
That was really an ill informed thing to do. I just got (likely the rest
of the list too) a 313kb file! Or better said you spammed the group. Not
all of us have the ability to view it or the patience to download it!
First I appreciate the willingness to try and help out and share
data with The List... Info is Good: however I certainly second the
sentiment... that an ASCII e-mail list is hardly the place for large
chunks o' bytes.
Please recall that we have members on this List who pay for access
*by the minute*.... and some on 14.4 (or slower) modems.
I had to just send it to dev/null, since I use Pine under a Unix
shell account. [Think VT100] O well...
Cheers
