Hi all,
I think Stephanie has a point. I am used to recieving large meg files, but
many other people are not, so it would be an idea to limit them to me. Also
I note that you sent the files to Michael Hart, and I _know_ that he is a
text-only guy :>)

Stephanie, you are not on my list (but if you would like to be involved with
Gutenberg I'm sure we can find you a place [:>)]), so I assume that you are
on Cimarron's list.
Regards,
Frank
