Hi! I don't know what the policy is on posting humungous files to Love-Hounds. If there isn't one, maybe there should be one, and if there already is, I move we change it. Those two GIF files were nice, but I don't have a way to translate them- I'm sure I'm not the only one. Moreover, I have very limited disk-space on this VAX system, and when things like that come in they do very unpleasant things to my account, such as shut it down. Getting it running again is a pain, and all the mail that arrived for me after that Digest has been eaten- it won't ever arrive, and won't get bounced back to the sender. Again, I'm sure I'm not the only one with problems of this kind. In future, could we just post a notification that these things are available, and have interested parties e-mail to get them from the source? It would be one thing if a huge Digest were made up of something I could do something with- but going through all this trouble for the sake of wasted disk-space isn't worth it. Thanks. Also, Kevin from Lone Star Lionhearts is under the impression that people who have computer access are "pirating" it from their work or school. I pay $23,000 a year to go to this place- if that isn't paying for VAX service, I don't know what is. *---------------------------------------------* | Meredith Tarr | | *** | | "Living in the gap between past and future" | | *** | | mtarr@eagle.wesleyan.edu | *---------------------------------------------*
