Could be worse... this comes to mind only because as I read your message, I noticed a new email coming down from one guy that I want to strangle. I am on a mailing list for state surplus property so my Fire Deparment knows when good stuff comes in. The guy that sends out the notices keeps taking digital pics of the stuff, and importing them into MS Word documents before sending them as attachments. So he takes what would be a 50k JPEG, and turns it into a 2.5 MB word doc... just so I can take a look at whatever he is hocking that day (today it was a GMC dump truck). Even on DSL, downloading a 2.5 MB file to look at one picture is annoying! -chris <http://www.mythtech.net>
