I simply, and strongly, feel that we should not send attachments on the LUG. Period. Binaries or text files, they should not be here. If you wish, include them in the message body. If you wish, post them to a Web Site. If you wish, advise folks of their availability and send them by private E-mail. But a document such as this -- one, if fact, which a LOT of us already have on our bookshelves -- shouldn't be posted as an attachment. Attachments take a long, long time to download and waste a lot of bandwidth in an already cluttered Internet. Every other list I subscribe to has such a policy and for sound reasons.
